This file is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center for the 581st Software Engineering Squadron (581 SWES). The RFI seeks market research regarding the procurement of VDATS (Versatile Diagnostic Automated Test Station) Foundation and Instrument Kits, with a focus on Pickering products for automatic test station software and hardware.

The RFI requests potential vendors to provide a detailed response covering three main sections: Company Profile, Capability, and Proposed Approach. Key requirements include describing experience with military Automatic Test Stations, confirming authorized Pickering product reseller status, and proposing a project schedule. The solicitation anticipates a firm-fixed price contract under NAICS code 334515 (Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals), though vendors are invited to suggest alternative NAICS classifications. This is a preliminary market research effort and does not constitute a formal solicitation, with no guarantee of subsequent contract award.
