Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southeast (NAVFAC SE) is exploring the use of a regional indefinite-delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for fire truck repairs for the various installations across the NAVFAC SE area of responsibility (AOR) to include but not limited to: Naval Air Station (NAS) Key West, Florida; Naval Support Activity (NSA) Panama City, Florida; NAS Joint Reserve Base (JRB) Fort Worth, Texas; NAS Kingsville, Texas; NAS Corpus Christi, Texas; NAS Joint Reserve Base (JRB) New Orleans, Louisiana; NCBC Gulfport, Mississippi and NAS Meridian, Mississippi.  The Government is seeking to obtain information from industry regarding qualified and interested participants in an effort to create standardization and efficiencies in obtaining these services.  Potential sources should have current relevant qualifications, experience, personnel, security approvals, equipment, and capability to perform the requested services.  This information will support future procurement and contract development for fire truck repair services across NAVFAC SE installations.

Background/Desired Outcome.  NAVFAC SE currently uses stand-alone purchase orders to obtain fire truck repair services, issued on a firm-fixed price basis, by individual contracting field offices.  The Government is seeking to obtain information from industry to assist in creating efficiencies and standardization in obtaining these services.  The various installations have an inventory of Pierce, Oshkosh, Ford, KME, and E-One fire apparatus which may need repair or remove and replace services.  Fire truck service requirements typically include services such as: heavy truck towing and mishap repair, parts, maintenance services, and/or technical support.  There is a fleet of approximately 65 fire trucks.  Due to the nature of the repairs, original equipment manufacturer (OEM) certified parts and technicians are often required to perform repairs.  Some of the repairs may require Certification Level II Emergency Vehicle Technicians (EVTs).
