About this file
This is a Sources Sought Synopsis for market research purposes only, not a solicitation. The United States Air Force is seeking potential contractors to determine if responsible sources exist for MABSM (Military Application Business System Management) Sustainment Follow-On services and to assess whether the effort can be conducted competitively or as a total Small Business Set-Aside.
MABSM is a highly customized, mission-critical Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) system based on Impresa software. The system has undergone 24 years of continuous customization, including over 242,000 custom code changes, and interfaces with 17 legacy Department of Defense systems. It operates within the Department of the Air Force's Cloud 1 enterprise cloud environment utilizing DoD Impact Level 4/5 secure infrastructure. MABSM provides real-time tracking of aircraft parts, financial transactions, and Nuclear Weapons-Related Material (NWRM) items, requiring performance exceeding 95% system uptime and 100% real-time accountability of NWRM items within 24-hour periods. Interested parties must submit responses by October 8, 2026, limited to 10 pages, including company name and CAGE Code, points of contact, size status, SAM.gov and WAWF registration confirmation, and any authorized distributor letters for Hill AFB, Utah. The applicable NAICS Codes are 541513 or 541519 with size standards of $37M or $24M respectively. Responses should be submitted to Hannah Rearick (hannah.rearick@us.af.mil) or Nate Littlewood (nathanial.littlewood@us.af.mil), with an attached RFI document providing additional vendor capability questions.

Synopsis Number: Notice Type:
FA8228-MABSM Sustainment Follow-On Sources Sought
Synopsis:
Notice: This is not a solicitation but rather a Sources Sought Synopsis to determine potential sources for information and planning purposes only.
1. The purpose of this Sources Sought is to conduct market research to determine if responsible sources exist, to assist in determining if this effort can be competitive and/or a total Small
Business Set-Aside.
2. PLEASE SEE ADDITIONAL ATTACHMENTS FOR FURTHER DETAILS AND VENDOR CAPABILITY
QUESTIONS
Program Details:
1. The MABSM application is a highly customized, mission-critical Commercial Off-The-Shelf
(COTS) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) system. Originally built on a baseline commercial Impresa MRO/ERP software foundation, the system has undergone extensive, continuous customization over the past 24 years.
To date, the MABSM baseline includes over 242,000 custom code changes, program specifications, testing criteria, and complex interface logic. These modifications enable real-time communication with 17 legacy Department of Defense (DoD) systems. This highly specialized, proprietary configuration of the COTS software bears little structural resemblance to its commercial progenitor and operates as a unique hybrid system.
MABSM operates and is sustained within the Department of the Air Force's Cloud 1 enterprise cloud environment, leveraging DoD Impact Level 4/5 (IL4/IL5) secure cloud infrastructure. Sourcing specialized contractors who can operate seamlessly within Cloud 1's
DevSecOps frameworks, managed services, and security boundaries is crucial to system stability.
MABSM dictates the real-time tracking of critical assets, including aircraft parts, financial transactions, and Nuclear Weapons-Related Material (NWRM) items. Due to the high-tempo depot environments in which it is deployed, the system requires a performance baseline exceeding 95% system uptime and near-zero code degradation. Furthermore, national security mandates dictate 100% real-time accountability of NWRM items within any given
24-hour period.
