Report
Summary
The Phoenix Fire Department’s Aviation District requires Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) fleet inspection by a third-party to assist with maintaining their Airport Operating certification under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Part 139 through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The maintenance and operations of the ARFF fleet are critical to the successful operations of the Phoenix Fire Department Aviation District. The FAA’s annual inspection of certificated airports includes the maintenance records and verification of vehicle operations in accordance with Title 14 of the CFR Part 139.
The ARFF fleet of six vehicles is unique, costly, and very specialized. An independent third-party inspection performed by a contractor specializing in ARFF apparatus ensures that it meets the standards set by the FAA and the Phoenix Fire Department Aviation District and that the ARFF fleet is adequately maintained.
Contract Term
The contract term remains unchanged, ending on November 2, 2026.
Financial Impact
The aggregate value of the contract will not exceed $108,000 and no additional funds are needed.
