- Flight Data Transmitter (FDT) Remanufacture PN: 50210-307 NSN: 1420-01-361-0713 Platform: Air Launched Cruise Missile (ALCM) CAUTION: This market survey is being conducted to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for the remanufacture effort for the FDT. 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 as this survey is for planning purposes and may not result in a solicitation or contract. The government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation in this survey. INSTRUCTIONS: Attached is the Boeing FDT envelope drawing, 232-11709, containing a description of the overall performance requirements for the FDT and a Contractor Capability Survey which allows you to provide your company�s capability. The Government may be able to provide additional technical data upon request, but the Government does not possess a complete technical data package at this moment. The government expects to own a full technical data package once order FA8128-24-D-B001/FA8128-24-F-B002 is complete and all deliverables have been received. If, after reviewing these documents, you desire to participate in the market research, you should provide documentation that supports your company�s capability in meeting these requirements. Failure to provide documentation may result in the government being unable to adequately assess your capabilities. If you lack sufficient experience in a particular area, please provide details explaining how you would overcome the lack of experience/capabilities in order to perform that portion of the requirement (i.e., teaming, subcontracting, etc.) Identify any areas of work that your organization believes should be broken out exclusively for Small Business. Both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate in this Market Research. Joint ventures or teaming arrangements are encouraged. All submissions will be reviewed IAW FAR Part 19 procedures. Questions relative to this market survey should be addressed to Joshua M. Irwin, Procuring Contracting Officer, AFNWC/PZNT. 520-705-3761, joshua.irwin.4@us.af.mil. PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION: The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to execute a full-rate production effort for the remanufacture of the Flight Data Transmitter (FDT), Part Number 50210-307 and NSN 1420-01-361-0713. The objective is to produce 515 remanufactured FDT units. This synopsis is for informational and market research purposes only. This is NOT a Request for Proposal (RFP) and does not constitute a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract. The FDT is a critical line replaceable unit (LRU) used in the ALCM weapon system, and its primary function is to measure and provide rotation in the roll, pitch, and yaw axes as well as normal acceleration to the ALCM during flight. This remanufacturing effort is the follow-on production phase to the FDT Phase II remanufacture readiness program (EA 24-B03), which is scheduled for completion in October 2028. The readiness phase will produce a complete Technical Data Package (TDP), including procedure refinements, acceptance and qualification test plans, six prototype FDTs, and a production line plan. The contractor shall be responsible for a full-rate production effort to deliver 515 remanufactured FDTs at a minimum rate of 94 units per year. Key responsibilities shall include, but are not limited to: Remanufacturing: Disassemble, clean, inspect, assemble, and test unserviceable FDTs to a serviceable, like-new condition. Component Replacement: Replace critical internal components, including gyroscopes, accelerometers, circuit cards, and resistors. Testing & Analysis: Stand up all necessary test equipment to support production throughput. Conduct functional testing, Product Reliability Verification Testing (PRVT), troubleshooting, and any required root-cause failure analysis. Logistics & Supply Chain: Furnish all required labor, materials, facilities, and equipment. Manage the supply chain, including logistics planning, long-lead time parts procurement, and mitigation of diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortages (DMSMS). Delivery: First delivery of remanufactured FDTs must begin no later than August 2030. The remanufactured FDT must meet all original design requirements, OEM specifications, and all nuclear hardness and certification requirements. Upon contract award, the Government will provide the complete TDP, two test sets, and six prototype units developed during the Phase II readiness effort.
