About this file
This document is a request for information from the 448th Supply Chain Management Wing within the Air Force Sustainment Center. The 448th SCMW is seeking industry perspectives on developing a potential framework to rapidly address availability issues caused by diminishing manufacturing sources, material shortages, supply chain risk, and obsolescence. The framework could include a consortium of small businesses, traditional and non-traditional firms, academia, original equipment manufacturers, and Air Force organic reverse engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Respondents are asked to provide their views on feasibility, attractiveness, expectations for a successful framework, and potential use of agile methods to demonstrate equivalency of reverse engineered parts. Submissions are limited to 25 pages and are due by November 26, 2018 to the points of contact listed. No contract will be awarded for the information requested in this RFI.

Rapid DMSMS, Risk, and Obsolescence Solutions
The 448th Supply Chain Management Wing (SCMW), within the Air Force Sustainment Center (AFSC), would like industry perspectives on a potential 448th SCMW and Industrial Base reverse engineering and manufacturing framework to rapidly solve availability issues derived from Diminishing Manufacturing
Source and Material Shortages (DMSMS), supply chain risk, and obsolescence challenges.
The 448th SCMW is open to various solutions to include a consortium framework consisting of Small
Businesses, Traditional and Non-Traditional Firms, Academia, Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEMs), and AFSC Organic (Innovation Center) reverse engineering, repair development, and manufacturing capabilities.
Assumptions: The 448th SCMW would provide available serviceable and/or unserviceable assets, any existing technical data, and a desired solution set (in terms of deliverables). Deliverables may include, but would not be limited to, prototype assets, procurable technical data packages, and manufacturing runs required to fulfill immediate 448th SCMW needs and industrial base business case requirements
(e.g., timeframe to recover investment costs). It is envisioned that after requirement delivery and the timeframe to recover investment costs (whichever would be advertised or negotiated) are completed, all delivered technical and supply chain data will be provided to the 448th SCMW with unlimited rights.
The 448th SCMW is interested in your thoughts from your perspective as to how to rapidly solve availability issues derived from DMSMS, supply chain risk, and obsolescence challenges utilizing the assumptions above. Please include perspectives on feasibility, attractiveness, expectations of a successful framework, and the potential for utilizing agile methods in demonstrating equivalency of reverse engineered parts (i.e., how you would demonstrate reverse engineered parts are form, fit, and functionally equivalent). Inputs on lessons learned from unsuccessful frameworks are also welcomed.
While there is no prescribed format for delivery, all submissions are limited to 25 pages. The 448th
SCMW does not intend to award a contract nor pay for any information, presentation or materials provided in response to this Request For Information (RFI). If requested, presentations may be given at
Tinker AFB, OK, after submittal of written inputs.
Request written inputs be provided in response to this RFI via email to all POCs listed below no later than close of business (1700 Central) on 26 November 2018. The POCs for this RFI are:
