Request for Information - F-15 ENGINE FUEL HYDRAULIC DISPLAY DEPOT ACTIVATION CAPABILITIES

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base is seeking industry information through this Request for Information (RFI) regarding depot activation capabilities for the F-15EX Engine Fuel Hydraulic Display system. The procurement focuses on contractor capabilities to design, build, and procure Specialized Test Equipment (STE), Test Program Sets (TPS), and Interface Test Adapters (ITAs) to establish organic maintenance capabilities at Air Logistics Complex facilities. Key requirements include identifying all necessary technical requirements, maximizing utilization of existing F-15 legacy equipment and testers, negotiating Partnering Agreements and Implementation Agreements with Original Equipment Manufacturers, and providing comprehensive training to USAF maintenance technicians within 30 days of final acceptance. The Government will use responses to support acquisition planning and may invite qualified respondents to participate in an Industry Day event, with responses becoming Government property and not subject to return or feedback. White Paper responses must be submitted by February 24, 2026, with a statement of intent also due within 14 calendar days of posting, and interested contractors should submit unclassified responses (with CUI acceptable) including company information, point of contact details, and supporting documentation.

This opportunity is not designated as a set-aside for small businesses or other socioeconomic categories, though respondents must identify their small business status based on NAICS code 334511, which has a 1,350 employee threshold. No incumbent contractor or current award value has been identified in the pre-solicitation materials. Respondents must comply with export control requirements, including submission of a Certified DD Form 2345, and foreign participation is not authorized, though foreign nationals may be employed if limited to public domain information. The RFI requires detailed company information including incorporation date, years in business, employee count, security clearance level, facility location, DUNS number, and CAGE code to assist the Government in evaluating contractor qualifications and capability to support this critical depot activation initiative for the F-15EX program.
