BACKGROUND Boeing is the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of the P-8A airframe, as well as the sole integrator of the P-8A�s systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities, and therefore is the only responsible source with the requisite knowledge, experience, and technical data to develop and fabricate the aforementioned P-8A retrofit kits without resulting in unacceptable delays.� The P-8A consists of a basic Boeing commercial 737-800 ERX air vehicle modified to meet Navy requirements, and numerous systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities.� The development and fabrication of the aforementioned retrofit kits requires a complete P-8A airframe Technical Data Package (TDP) in order to ascertain the engineering specifications necessary to develop such kits.� As the P-8A Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Boeing is the only source that has the knowledge and access to the technical data necessary to develop and fabricate the kits.� The Government does not possess a TDP that can be provided to an alternate source.� Boeing has indicated they are unwilling to deliver a TDP with sufficient Government rights for third party distribution due to the proprietary nature and commerciality of the 737 aircraft and other systems within the P-8A platform.� SUBMISSION DETAILS Any interested party (respondent) may submit a Capability Statement within the required response time to demonstrate respondent�s ability to fulfill the Government�s requirements.� Only Capability Statements received not later than the Response Date indicated in this Notice will be considered by the Government.� A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed contract action based upon responses to this Notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.� Capability Statements received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.� Capability Statements submitted shall be pertinent and specific in the technical/ management/ business area under consideration, on each of the following qualifications.

Information submitted in response to this Notice is submitted at no cost to the Government and will not be returned.� The Government is under no obligation to provide responses or comments to the information received from interested persons, but may request additional information following review.� Note: If the interested person is a foreign concern or if a U.S. interested person has a team member or partner who is a foreign entity, adherence to all International Traffic and Arms Regulations (ITAR) is required.� Responses to this Notice shall be sent via e-mail to Scott Segesdy at scott.a.segesdy.civ@us.navy.mil and Margarette Wolfe at margarette.e.wolfe.civ@us.navy.mil.
