- The AF is evaluating the need for the procurement of X-Gages (Stock Number 4935-00-876-1487, Part Number 9114225-1) used on MMIII ICBM Support Equipment. . The Government�s Technical Data Package consists of the specification and majority of the drawings, but is missing manufacturing processes. The manufacturing of the X-Gage will require obsolescence mitigation. Upon request, a draft specification, top level drawings and a parts list may be delivered.CAPABILITIES: � Must provide evidence of capability to manufacture the X-Gages � Must demonstrate experience resolving problems revolving around requirements for obsolescence mitigation o Must demonstrate capabilities to resolve problems with material and process discrepancies during development and manufacturing of items similar to the X-Gages � Must have the ability to obtain equipment (if not already possessed) and material to manufacture the X-Gages � Must have or demonstrate a quality management system � Must demonstrate capability and expertise for schedule adherence while addressing technical challenges � Must be able to perform qualification testing, or have a capable source to sub-contract testing ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS: � Provide estimate for schedule length from Contract Award to Qualification (including delivery of initial spares) o Include first asset delivery and time required to mitigate obsolescence, any process improvements, and allow for long lead items � Identify any critical manufacturing elements � Devices shall be compatible with the existing AF test equipment. Provide the number of existing test sets that would need to be provided as Government Furnished Equipment � Provide information on ISO 9001 certification, or equivalent system � Provide estimated cost range such as a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) from Contract Award to Qualification and estimated production costs o The AF estimates the use of 1 X-Gage for Qualification testing. Industry can propose a different quantity based on experience o The AF estimates the need for an additional 10 X-Gages as replacements RESPONSES: Responsible and capable sources may identify their interest by providing a white paper capability statement (limited to 10 pages) with sufficient information to substantiate respondents have all of the capabilities listed in Capabilities and answering all of the AF questions. ADDITIONAL NOTICES: Neither the release of this sources sought synopsis nor any responses to it guarantee a solicitation will be issued. A determination by the AF not to compete this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the AF. The AF will not pay for either the effort or the associated costs to respond, or for any information provided. ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENT: The distribution of the draft specification and top level drawings is limited to contractors with a DD 2345 certified by the Defense Logistics Information Service, Joint Certification Program (1-877-352-2255) and who have a legitimate business purpose. As such, the draft specification and top level drawings cannot be provided to a contractor without a certification. Contractors who would like to become certified can find the form and instructions at: https://public.logisticsinformationservice.dla.mil/PublicHome/jcp/default.aspx. Interested parties are advised that certification of a DD Form 2345 may take time, so completion and submission of that form as soon as possible is highly recommended.
