Synopsis: The Air Force Safety Center's Mishap Analysis & Animation Facility (MAAF) maintains an extensive array of specialized hardware and software to download aircraft flight data recorders (FDR) and cockpit voice recorders (CVR) that have been involved in a mishap. As part of a modernization and capability-enhancement effort, the Air Force proposes to procure download hardware and software for a number of FDRs and CVRs manufactured by L-3 Communications Corporation, DBA L-3 Communication Aviation Recorders Division. The specific recorder for which this modernized and/or enhanced equipment will be pursued under the proposed contract is the SRVIVR® FDR (part number 1493100-2200) for F-15 aircraft. The solution will allow MAAF personnel to extract data from crash-protected memory without opening or disassembling the unit when the recorder is undamaged. In addition, the solution will allow MAAF personnel to extract data from crash-protected memory following a crash down to at least the circuit board level. The contractor will be expected to provide all necessary hardware, software, training and documentation required to accomplish the data download, as well as representative recorder hardware to allow MAAF personnel to verify functionality of the download equipment in the future. Source code and executables for any software developed under the proposed contract shall be delivered with unlimited rights to the Air Force in accordance with DFARS 252.227-7013 and DFARS 252.227-7015. Unlimited rights will not be expected for any software developed outside the scope of the proposed contract. The contractor will be expected to provide sample recorder(s) to be used in the performance of the task. The contractor will be expected to procure or provide all data necessary to download or communicate with the recorder. Anticipated date of award is 14 September 2012. The FSC Code is 1680, the NAICS Code is 334511 and the size standard is 750 employees. Interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement within five (5) days of this announcement.
