    The document outlines the Statement of Work for the rental of hangar space and associated services for the 357th Fighter Squadron at the Salina Regional Airport, Kansas, during their A-10C FTU capstone TDY from December 2 to December 13, 2024. Key services required include provision of hangar space (Hangar 600), aircrew ground equipment, office facilities, and support from the fixed base operator. The contractor must comply with state and local regulations, maintain facility safety protocols, and ensure all necessary permits and licenses are acquired. Security will be managed by the airfield, with the 357th Fighter Squadron personnel having 24/7 access. Personal protective equipment is mandatory for on-site staff as part of safety measures. Overall, this request highlights the importance of effective support logistics for military training operations in a controlled and secure environment.
    This document presents a Single Source Justification for the 357th FS Hangar Rental contract, executed by the 355th Contracting Squadron, highlighting the need for specialized facilities for the A-10 IQT Capstone training program near Salina, Kansas. Due to proximity limitations necessitated by the JTAC unit's location and specific training requirements, Salina Airport is identified as the only viable contractor capable of meeting these demands. Surrounding airfields lack the necessary runway length, hangar availability, and maintenance support, rendering them unsuitable for the mission. Despite efforts to identify alternative locations through market research and consultations, no other airports can adequately fulfill the mission specifications. The document also outlines the contracting officer's determination, in accordance with FAR guidelines, asserting that only a single source is reasonably available for this requirement. The 355th Contracting Squadron remains committed to promoting competition and ongoing market research for future contracts while recognizing the unique constraints related to the current A-10 training mission.
