handle is hein.gao/gaocrptahvg0001 and id is 1 raw text is: oComptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to a I GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Pemco Aeroplex, Inc. File: B-280397 Date: September 25, 1998 Ronald K Henry, Esq., and Mark A. Riordan, Esq., Kaye, Scholer, Fierman, Hays & Handler, for the protester. Thomas J. Madden, Esq., John J. Pavlick, Jr., Esq., Lars E. Anderson, Esq., and Paul N. Wengert, Esq., Venable, Baetjer, Howard & Civiletti, for Lockheed Martin Aircraft & Logistics Centers, an intervenor. Gregory H. Petkoff, Esq., and John Lariccia, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for the agency. Ralph 0. White, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging Air Force decision to use a consolidated solicitation to procure a significant portion of the workload currently performed by the Sacramento Air Logistics Center--thus bundling together programmed depot maintenance for the KC- 135 aircraft, inspections and painting of the A-10 aircraft, and overhaul and repair requirements for hydraulic components, electrical accessories, and flight instruments--is sustained where the Air Force is unable to show that combining these requirements is reasonably required to satisfy the agency's needs. DECISION Pemco Aeroplex, Inc. protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. F04606- 98-R-0007, issued by the Department of the Air Force for a public/private competition for a significant portion of the depot workload currently performed by the Sacramento Air Logistics Center, McClellan Air Force Base (AFB), California. McClellan AFB is scheduled to close in 2001, and the Air Force has consolidated the depot's workload requirements in the following five areas into a single solicitation: (1) programmed depot maintenance for the KC-135 aircraft, (2) inspections and painting of the A-10 aircraft, and overhaul and repair requirements for (3) hydraulic components, (4) electrical accessories, and (5) flight instruments/electronics. Pemco asserts that it is a potential offeror for the KC-135 workload, and protests that the solicitation unduly restricts competition by combining these requirements into one procurement.
