GOVERNMENT FURNISHED PROPERTY/BASE SUPPORT

Government Furnished Property (GFP): GFP for this program is not anticipated. However, if work is proposed to be performed off base, and no conflicts exist as to usage of equipment, GFP may be negotiated if it is in the best interest of the government. Base Support: The offeror shall, insofar as possible, avoid incurring costs in duplicating work or support capacity available at or through AFRL/RX during the performance of the contract. Therefore, the offeror may propose to utilize any or all available Government or Government controlled working space, equipment, supplies, materials, services, or other support at or available through AFRL/RX. The items contemplated for Base Support are as follows: a) The Government shall provide, on a no charge-for-use basis, through the auspices of the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate, the use of the AFRL/RXN facilities, primarily located in Building 655 and Rooms 1-4, 31-34, 223, 225, 226, 232-234, 250-253, and 250, 351 of Building 654, Area B, Wright-Patterson AFB, for performance of any proposed work. The facilities includes the following:
i)

Electromagnetic Characterization Facility with a 2-18 GHz focused beam system, a quasioptical focused beam system, optical microscopy, network analyzers, waveguide kits, and electrical properties characterization equipment
ii) Multifunctional Structural Materials Laboratory
iii) Dielectric Cure Monitoring Laboratory
