About this opportunity
The Air Force Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities (AF TENCAP), through the Air Force Lifecycle Management Center (AFLCMC) Sensors Division, is conducting market research to identify vendors capable of developing a technology interface for tactical aircraft. The primary objective is to find a solution that can connect tactical aircraft using low-bandwidth communication equipment with an existing multi-source all-domain awareness tool, enabling streaming of beyond line-of-sight situational awareness and tactically relevant data to air platform operators. Vendors must demonstrate previous experience in prototype development, operational fielding, and software support, with an emphasis on system modularity and potential reuse across different tactical platforms. Responses are due electronically by 4:00 PM EST on April 18, 2025, with questions accepted until 4:00 PM EST on April 14, 2025. Potential contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and are limited to 20-page submissions that include company details, NAICS codes, and ownership status.
This pre-solicitation notice is not set aside for any specific business category and welcomes both U.S. and non-U.S. firms for participation. The research is specifically categorized under NAICS code 541511 for Custom Computer Programming Services and PSC code 5865 for Electronic Countermeasures and Counter-Countermeasures Equipment. While no specific award value or budget range is currently disclosed, the government is seeking to identify potential prime and subcontractors for future contract opportunities. The market research is purely informational and will not directly result in a contract award. Interested vendors should focus on demonstrating their capability to interface tactical aircraft systems, with particular attention to low-bandwidth communication solutions and the ability to provide streaming situational awareness across multiple domains.
Notice text
AF TENCAP, through the Air Force Lifecycle Management Center (AFLCMC) Sensors Division (AFLCMC/WIN), is conducting market research to identify vendors who have designed and developed a capability to interface tactical aircraft, using low-bandwidth communication equipment, with an existing multi-source all-domain awareness tool to provide streaming beyond line-of-sight situational awareness and tactically relevant data, to air platform operator(s). Information related to previous demonstrations, prototype efforts, development activities, operational fielding, and software support of such efforts, including the modularity and openness of the capability for reuse on other tactical platforms is also desired. This information may be used to identify potential prime contractors or subcontractors.
