UH-1N Replacement is a non-developmental program to acquire up to 84 new helicopters of the same configuration. The USAF intends to acquire an off-the-shelf (OTS), in-production helicopter and enter the acquisition life cycle at Milestone C. The USAF anticipates a contract award in early FY18 and first deliveries starting no later than 12 months after contract award. To assist in this effort, the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), ISR & SOF Directorate, Combat Rescue Helicopter Division (AFLCMC/WIH), Wright-Patterson AFB, OH is issuing this Request for Information (RFI). The goal of the RFI is to obtain market insight into program-related questions in order to refine the acquisition strategy and support an eventual Request for Proposal (RFP) release. Respondents are requested to review the questions posed in the RFI and provide detailed responses for their assumed solution to replace the UH-1N aircraft. The RFI responses will help the USAF clarify key questions regarding industry capability to meet the program's requirements, assess acquisition strategy assumptions, reduce program risk, and foster a competitive environment. Information received as a result of this request will be considered sensitive and will be protected. Any company proprietary information contained in the response should be clearly marked as such, by paragraph, such that 'publicly-releasable' and 'proprietary' information are clearly distinguished. Any proprietary information received in response to this request will be properly protected from any unauthorized disclosure. The Government will not use proprietary information submitted from any one responder to establish the capability and requirements for any future systems acquisition, so as to not inadvertently restrict competition. This is NOT an Invitation for Bid (IFB) or a Request for Proposal (RFP). The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI. This RFI is part of ongoing Government conducted market research for planning purposes. It is NOT a solicitation. The Government will not provide reimbursement for costs associated with this request. Responses will be treated as information only and will not be used as a proposal. The submitted documentation, upon delivery, becomes the property of the US Government and will not be returned. Such information will be reviewed by a team comprised of Government as well as contractor personnel hired to provide technical assistance for the Government. All members of the team will be reminded of their obligation to protect such information to the maximum extent permitted or required by the Economic Espionage Act, 18 U.S.C. 1831 et seq., and other applicable statutes or regulations. In addition, Government members will be reminded of their obligations to afford protection under the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905. All contractor members are required to protect the information by the terms of their contracts. The Government will determine whether its contractor team members have any organizational conflicts of interest that could adversely affect protection of the information. The Government may conduct follow-on discussions with responders about the RFI responses through individual meetings. Additional RFIs and/or Industry Days may be utilized as the program continues preparation for an RFP release. The Government plans to utilize contractor personnel from the following companies: HX5, Booz Allen Hamilton, and Alion Science & Technology. Please notify the Government if your company believes there may be an organizational conflict of interest. RFI Response Guidance: 1. A cover page containing identification of the company Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code, street address, and business size for NAICS codes 336411 (aircraft manufacturing), and the names and telephone numbers of the technical Point of Contact (POC) and the overall company POC (in the case of a partnership, please provide appropriate CAGE codes and POC information for the lead company). 2.
