NO REIMBURSEMENT WILL BE MADE FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO THIS SYNOPSIS OR ANY FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION REQUESTS. THE PURPOSE OF THIS SYNOPSIS IS TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF POTENTIALLY QUALIFIED SOURCES AND THEIR SIZE S (SMALL BUSINESS, LARGE BUSINESS, ETC.). PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST A COPY OF A SOLICITATION, AS ONE DOES NOT EXIST. 1. Purpose.

This is a Sources Sought in support of Market Research being conducted by the United States Air Force to identify potential sources for a contractor to provide comprehensive planned maintenance, continuous wireless condition monitoring, and alignment services for two critical pieces of equipment: Air Conditioning Unit 1 (ACU

1) and Air Conditioning Unit 2 (ACU 2). Both units are located at Edwards Air Force Base, Building 1030, for the 772TS/EWOX. The purpose of this service is to ensure enhanced equipment reliability and prevent costly downtime by shifting from purely schedule-based maintenance to a data-driven model, utilizing a permanent condition monitoring system to trigger specific maintenance actions. The resulting contract will include one (1) base year and four (4) option years. 2. Requirement.

SCOPE OF WORK: The contractor shall provide all necessary labor, hardware, software, and expertise to transition the equipment to a monitored, data-driven maintenance program. The scope encompasses the following: Permanent Condition Monitoring System (Base Year Requirement) Installation & Integration: Supply and install a permanent, wireless condition monitoring system (including all necessary hardware and software) on both ACU 1 and ACU 2. System Capabilities: The system must provide continuous remote monitoring of critical operational parameters (e.g., vibration, temperature) to establish baselines and detect anomalies. Ongoing Monitoring and Data-Driven Maintenance Continuous Monitoring: Provide ongoing remote monitoring and data analysis of the equipment's health parameters. Data-Driven Interventions: Major service actions—such as precision laser shaft alignments (including hot condition alignment for the blower) and bearing replacements shall be performed as-needed based on system triggers and data trends, rather than solely on an annual schedule. Routine Annual Inspection and Preventative Maintenance Component Inspection: Annually inspect foundations, mounting hardware, electrical connections, controls, and shaft couplings. For ACU 1 (Blower), inspect the bearing housing, reservoir, throttle valve, and air filter (providing recommendations). Lubrication: Perform a complete lubrication change on motor and blower bearings in accordance with manufacturer specifications and data indicators. Seal Maintenance: Replace shaft seals on the ACU 1 Blower as needed. Operational Checks: Perform motor amperage checks and overall operational checks, including surge condition checks for the ACU 1 Blower.

DELIVERABLES: The contractor shall provide the following
