## Description

417th SCMS Landing Gear Depot Support (LGDS) Request for Information This announcement constitutes an official Request for Information (RFI). This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an Invitation for Bid (IFB), nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the government. The Government will not pay for any information provided in response to this RFI. Scope The 417th Landing Gear Supply Chain Management Squadron (417 SCMS), Enterprise Hill Commodity Council (EHCC) and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) are developing a strategy to support Ogden Air Logistics Complex (OO-ALC) Depot production goals associated with the B-52, C-5, C-130, KC-135, and E-3 platforms. This strategy will subsume the workload currently supported under the Landing Gear Performance Based Logistics (LG-PBL1) contract, while expanding support to the B-52 and C-5 platforms. The primary goals of this future contract are to provide: 1.) Complete Component Parts Kits: Support Depot remanufacture of landing gear Depot Level Reparables (DLRs) for all five weapon systems, 2.) Remanufacture Support: Fulfill remanufacturing requirements based on the delta between supply chain need and depot production capability. 3.) Process Offload: Relieve operational bottlenecks and single-point process failures (e.g. plating, grinding) at the organic depot. Background The 417 SCMS currently supports the LGDS requirements through multiple vehicles: LG-PBL1 Contract: Single-award, Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) award-term contract (consisting of a 5-year base and two 5-year award terms), supporting the C-130, E-3, and KC-135, expiring in 2032. The prime contractor is responsible for the quality and delivery of all parts. This contract operates under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP), incorporating a direct sales approach with incentives/disincentives tied to outcome-based performance metrics. Remanufacture percentages are roughly 60% organic Depot, and 40% contractor facility. Organic Depot Support: The B-52 and C-5 are remanufactured 100% organically at the OO-ALC depot, with individual component parts (kit parts) purchased transactionally through DLA. Developing Strategy The USAF owns the preponderance of the technical data and maintains a Boeing Rights Guard agreement for limited data on the E-3 and KC-135 landing gear systems. The Government has determined that to be successful this contract strategy must: Allow the contractor to leverage the Government’s buying power for consumable parts, while streamlining and improving the purchase process. Provide a single contractor with management responsibility for the entire population of replacement parts supporting DLRs. Improve forecasting and inventory accuracy Provide relief for single-point process bottlenecks (e.g., plating, grinding) within the organic depot Provide remanufacture support for all DLRs beyond the throughput capacity of Government depot, to be fulfilled at the prime contractor’s facility. Incorporate properly balanced incentives and disincentives for contractor performance Due to the nature of this effort, the complexity and magnitude of the transition process, and the need for a single point of accountability, the Government intends to award a 15-year IDIQ-type contract. The single-award long-term approach will allow the contractor ample time to conduct the necessary research for proper phase-in of consumable kits, and support the transition of current LG-PBL1 workload. The Government intends to develop an outcome-based support contract utilizing a workshare payment approach. The primary objectives of this contract are to: (1) Improve landing gear piece part and assembly supportability (2) Provide remanufacture support beyond organic capacity 4.0 Performance Expectations Performance requirements under the future contract will include: Asset Availability of consumable kits to support OO-ALC Depot production lines Core remanufacture support for E-3, KC-135, and C-130. Potential expanded remanufacture support for B-52 and/or C-5. Industrial process (e.g. plating, grinding,) offload at the contractor’s facility when organic depot bottlenecking occurs. The LGDS acquisition team is asking for feedback from Industry representatives regarding this strategic support acquisition for Landing Gear spare parts. 5.0 Industry Feedback Questions: Please provide the following business information for your company:: Company Name Address Point of Contact CAGE Code Phone Number E-mail Address Web Page URL Size of Business under NAICS Code 336413 (Small Business Size Standard is 1,250 employees) The Government is anticipating a 15-year Firm-Fixed-Price contract for this effort. Describe any commercial risks, pricing volatility, or supply chain issues your company foresees with a 15-year duration. What Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) indices (e.g., specific Bureau of Labor Statistics PPI codes) or adjustment mechanisms would you recommend to mitigate long-term pricing risk? Describe your company's capability to procure all parts listed in Attachment 1 (Consumable Kits). What predictive tools, supply chain modeling, or consumption tracking methods do you use to anticipate demand and mitigate long-lead consumable shortages (e.g., specialized fasteners, seals, forgings)? What experience do you have supporting variable/operationally dependent Air Force parts needs, including surge requirements? Describe your company’s in-house capability and annual capacity to remanufacture the parts listed in Attachment 2 (LG-PBL1 NIINs). Does your company have experience providing parts and production support for complex landing gear assemblies throughout the remanufacture process? Please describe your company’s experience with USAF/Landing Gear engineering protocols, Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), and Quality Management. Describe your company’s experience managing legacy USAF weapon system component obsolescence and resolving recurring non-conforming parts issues within a remanufacturing environment. Does your co
