- Contract Capability Survey Performance Work Statement LANTIRN LANTIRN NAVIGATION POD (NSNs 5855-01-435-2772, P/N 717600000-279) CAUTION: The Government is conducting market research (Information and Planning Purposes only) to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements of engineering services for the sustainment of the AAQ-13 Navigation Pod, subassemblies, and Line Replaceable Units (LRU's). Sustainment consists of the evaluation and resolution of system maintenance deficiencies, resolution of parts obsolescence deficiencies, development of engineering change proposals, review of Government engineering change proposals, performance of sustainment studies, and technical services in support of the analysis and resolution of system supportability deficiencies for use by the United States Air Force. The Government does not own or have access to the data for these items. The Government has determined that this system is not a commercial item. No samples are available to evaluate. Contractor shall furnish all material, support equipment, tools, test equipment, and services. The contractor is responsible for providing, maintaining, and calibrating all support equipment required at their facility or a subcontractor's facility. Contractor furnished material or parts used for replacement shall equal or exceed the quality of the original material or parts. The current sole source contractor for this effort is Lockheed Martin Integrated Systems (LMIS). Contractors/Institutions responding to this market research are placed on notice that participation in this survey may not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards. The government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation in this survey. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This RFI does not commit the Government to a contract for any supplies or services. Further, the USAF is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Respondees are advised that the U.S. Government (USG) will not pay for any information or administrative costs 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, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website (www.fbo.gov). Responses to this RFI are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. The following clause applies to this Request For Information (RFI): Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes (Oct 1997) 52.215-3 -- Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes. (a) The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this solicitation or to otherwise pay for the information solicited except as an allowable cost under other contracts as provided in subsection 31.205-18, Bid and proposal costs, of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
