Quick Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is soliciting proposals for the purchase, installation, and support of a King Air 360 Extended Range (ER) Full Flight Simulator (FFS). This open and unrestricted opportunity seeks a complete turnkey solution for the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) in Oklahoma City, OK. Proposals are due by 4:00 PM Central on April 22, 2026.

Scope of Work

The requirement is for a Level D Beechcraft 360ER FFS, compliant with 14 CFR Part 60, to support regulatory-required training for AJF pilots and Aviation Safety (AVS) participants. The scope includes:

  • Procurement, production, and installation of the FFS, including site preparation and removal of the existing Airbus A330 simulator.
  • Provision of product support, training, and contractor maintenance, ensuring a 95% annual availability rate.
  • The simulator must feature Proline Fusion Avionics, autothrottle, electric motion actuators, and support advanced training capabilities like Upset Prevention and Recovery Training.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) with Firm Fixed Price, Time and Materials, and Cost Reimbursable components.
  • Period of Performance: A base period of five (5) years, plus two option periods (three and two years respectively), totaling up to ten (10) years.
  • Estimated Value: The total estimated potential value of the contract is $1,365,407.00.
  • Place of Performance: Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Oklahoma City, OK.
  • Set-Aside: This is an open and unrestricted solicitation. Large businesses are required to submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan.

Key Requirements & Clarifications

  • The contractor is responsible for obtaining all necessary technical data, as the FAA will not provide OEM FSTD Simulation Data.
  • Any required modifications to the existing mezzanine for simulator installation are the contractor's financial and contractual responsibility.
  • Post-installation support requires a technician trained and qualified by the simulator manufacturer.
  • The contractor is responsible for all periodic software maintenance and agreements to ensure 100% simulator functionality.
  • 24/7 site access will be granted to personnel with FAA-issued badges.

Submission & Evaluation

Award will be made to the lowest-price technically acceptable (LPTA) offeror. Proposals must strictly adhere to the mandatory structure and content requirements outlined in Section L, and will be evaluated per Section M. Required submissions include a complete SIR document, Schedule B Price List, Organizational Experience Questionnaire, Simulator Design, and Technical and Management Approach.
