SOF Technical Data Management and Development Project

The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet requirements to provide technical manuals, and engineering support for the AC-130J and SOF C-130 assets to include Precision Strike Package (PSP) components. The current strategy for this services requirement is a four year contract with three option years that will continue through FY27. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. In accordance with FAR 52.215-3, this RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes – it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue a RFP in the future.

The intended outcome is to receive technical writing services in order to sustain current and future combat operations. The AC-130J aircrew's mission is to provide close air support, armed reconnaissance, force protection, integrated base defense, strike control and reconnaissance, air interdiction and convoy escort to troops in contact. The MC-130J platform is beginning the integration of Precision Strike Package to carry forth the constant evolving needs of the AFSOC and USSOCOM’s mission. The government needs to provide technical data to aircrews and field maintenance personnel to be able to successfully sustain these new assets.

Responders’ are advised that the U.S. Government will not reimburse participants for any expenses incurred in response to this RFI; all costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the interested party’s expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP nor does it ensure participation, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the SAM website (https://sam.gov/content/home). It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor this site for additional information pertaining to this requirement.
