The Boeing Company is the aircraft manufacturer of the F/A-18, performed the integration engineering of the MPCDR into the F/A-18, developed the original MPCDR OTPS for the US Navy CASS and eCASS, and as such possesses the requisite technical data, knowledge, and special skills regarding the MPCDR design and operation to meet the Navy's requirements. The contractor shall be responsible for obtaining, from The Boeing Company, all manufacturing drawings and proprietary specification data necessary to support the MPCDR OTPS modification to the US Navy CASS and eCASS. THIS SYNOPSIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP), BUT RATHER A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) from industry that will allow the Government to identify interested sources capable of meeting the requirements as stated in this synopsis. This RFI is issued solely for market research, planning and information purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter into a contractual agreement, nor will the Government pay for information solicited hereunder.

All data received in response to this RFI, marked or designated as corporate or proprietary, will be fully protected from release outside the Government. Failure to respond to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future associated RFP that may be issued.
