About this opportunity

The Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center is seeking sustaining engineering support services for the AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system installed on HC/MC-130J aircraft. Potential offerors must demonstrate capability to provide engineering studies to address reliability, maintainability, and obsolete parts issues; analyze failure trends; and troubleshoot system discrepancies. Offerors must also be capable of developing prototype hardware and software with associated technical data, testing prototype components, and updating technical documentation. Responses to the capability survey included in the RFI are due by close of business on March 27, 2021.

There is no set-aside designated for this requirement. The anticipated incumbent and potential sole-source awardee is Raytheon Intelligence & Space, the current contractor. The procurement is for a one-year base contract period with two option years for sustaining engineering services on the AN/AAS-54 system installed on HC/MC-130J aircraft for the Air Force.

Notice text

The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the qualification requirements for HC/MC-130J

AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system sustaining engineering support. Potential sources must possess the ability to provide engineering studies for the AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system in resolving reliability and maintainability issues, obsolete parts issues, identify and propose solutions to Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS) issues, analyzing failure trends from the depots and the field level shops support. Potential Sources must be able to provide the Government engineering-level assistance with troubleshooting system discrepancies (e.g., responding to deficiency reports, investigating field-identified issues, engineering investigations, etc.) and maintenance analyses. Potential Sources must be capable of developing prototype hardware, software, and all associated technical data necessary to be able to install the prototype item into the AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system. The Potential Source must be able to fully test and evaluate the function and performance of the AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system with prototype components installed. The Potential Source must be capable of developing and providing the source data necessary to update AFTO’s and TDPs.

The proposed services are required to have access to Raytheon Intelligence & Space, and their databases which contains/maintains HC/MC-130J AN/AAS-54 EO/IR system engineering drawings that the HC/MC-130J Program Office requires.

The proposed acquisition strategy is a 1 year (basic plus 2 option periods) contract tentatively beginning in FY22 and continuing through FY25 depending on funding approval

The Government has determined that this system is not a commercial item. There are no samples available for potential suppliers to evaluate. The Government anticipates this requirement to be sole source to:
