- Description
- This announcement is a Sources Sought Notice/Request for Information (RFI) Synopsis and is NOT a Request for Proposal (RFP) nor an Invitation for Bid (IFB), nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a formal solicitation or ultimately award a contract. The following information is provided to assist the Air Force in conducting market research of industry to identify sources that meet Air Force requirements. There will be no reimbursement for the any information provided to the Air Force. Responses to this Sources Sought announcement are voluntary, and therefore, the U.S. Government is not liable to pay or reimburse any contractors which respond to this announcement. Any costs incurred by interested companies in response to this announcement are solely the responsibility of the responder. The Government does NOT intend to contract on the basis of this request or otherwise pay for any information solicited herein and the Government reserves the right to reject, in whole or in part, any contractor's input resulting from this RFI. The Air Force is issuing this repair sources sought announcement as part of a market research survey to determine if additional sources exist that could become qualified for repair of the F-16 Pnuematic Sensor Assembly (PSA) Cards, supporting NSN 6685 011496398, Part Number 2101382-3-1. Responses to this Notice shall consist of an initial white paper (not to exceed 3 pages) describing the offeror's capabilities with regard to trouble shooting, testing and repairing the F-16 PSA cards. The PSA receives pneumatic inputs from the nose-mounted and fuselage-mounted air data probes and develops electrical signals (linear dc voltages) equivalent to static pressure (PS1, PS2, PS3), impact pressure (QC1, QC2, QC3), angle-of-attack output (a), and hemispherical probe head pressure (QCN) that are supplied to the primary flight control subsystem and leading edge flap system. The Pneumatic Sensor Assembly (PSA) (Figure 1-1) is composed of eight transducer assemblies (three absolute pressure transducer assemblies and five differential pressure transducer assemblies), two self-test Printed Wiring Assemblies (PWA), and one analog divider PWA, all mounted in PWA racks formed in a chassis assembly and enclosed by a top cover assembly and bottom cover. The chassis assembly is composed of a housing assembly, a front panel, an interconnect PWA, a lightning protection PWA, a filter bracket assembly, and three Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) filter bracket assemblies. Electrical connections to the PSA are provided through three electrical connectors on the front panel; pneumatic connections are provided through nine flush ports on the front panel. Two hold-down hooks on the front panel and two dagger pins on the housing assembly provide the means to rack mount the PSA. The specific parts involved are as follows: CADC SRU Configurations FSC NIIN MMAC Part # 6685 011508985 WF 2118017-3 6685 011508986 WF 2118015-1 6685 011508987 WF 2118017-1 6685 011508988 WF 2118017-2 Repair is currently organic with additional sources requested. Perspective sources will be required to develop repair capability for the PSA's internal subassemblies. The government does not own the repair manuals for the PSA. Additionally, the government does not have any special test equipment available for repair to loan for the PSA. Therefore, the respondent would need to be able to demonstrate the ability to obtain or create those resources necessary to perform trouble shooting, repair and testing of the F-16 PSA in a timely fashion. If the offerer is able to develop or obtain the data, manuals, and tech orders from another party, they must be able to demonstrate that they have access to such resources and the legal right to use said resources to repair assets for the government. Interested organizations who feel they possess the necessary capabilities should respond by providing the Government the following information: a point of contact, address, telephone, and fax numbers, email address, duns number, cage code, and/or tax ID number, as well as size category, (large, small, small disadvantaged, etc) a brief summary of the companies capabilities, description of facilities, personnel, related manufacturing experience, and existing safety approvals ( refer to the white paper listed above). Provide any supporting information such as commercial literature, catalogues, manuals, etc. If a respondent chooses to utilize the services of sub-tier vendors or subcontractors, those vendors or subcontractors must meet the criteria specified herein as well. Responses to this Notice are due on or before 16 Jan 2015. All information marked as proprietary information will be safeguarded to prevent disclosures to nongovernment personnel and entities. Parties interested in repair the F-16 PSA will be required to become a qualified source, in accordance with the attached Source Qualification Statements (SQSs). Please send all correspondence to the following: Brandon Dahle, via email at brandon.dahle@us.af.mil via fax at 801-777-0389, or call at 801- 586-1868.
