About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base has issued a Request for Information seeking detailed technical and operational insights regarding F-16 Boresight Systems from potential vendors. The procurement focuses on boresight systems capable of operating in temperatures ranging from 35°F to 120°F, with aircraft-specific fixtures that attach to existing alignment points without requiring aircraft modifications. Key requirements include a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 6 or higher, current fielding status with military organizations, cross-platform utilization capabilities, and readiness for developmental testing. The evaluation will assess vendors' ability to provide systems for competitive fly-off events within 60-90 days, production unit delivery timelines, calibration requirements, and complete aircraft boresighting operational capabilities. Responses must be submitted via email by close of business on October 9, 2025, with the Air Force planning to select a system for potential contract award based on detailed technical and operational performance criteria.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified contractors. The RFI does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors for this requirement. No specific award values, budget ranges, or quantities are disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, as this is an information-gathering phase to assess market capabilities and vendor readiness. The timeline emphasizes vendor ability to support evaluation activities within a 60-90 day timeframe, suggesting an accelerated procurement schedule following the RFI response period. The government is specifically seeking systems that are currently deployed or ready for immediate testing and evaluation phases. This market research will inform the Air Force's acquisition strategy for F-16 boresighting capabilities moving forward.
