The following information is provided to assist the Air Force in conducting market research of industry to identify sources that meet Air Force requirements. There will be no reimbursement for the any information provided to the Air Force. Responses to this Sources Sought announcement are voluntary, and therefore, the U.S. Government is not liable to pay or reimburse any contractors which respond to this announcement. Any costs incurred by interested companies in response to this announcement are solely the responsibility of the responder. The Government does NOT intend to contract on the basis of this request or otherwise pay for any information solicited herein and the Government reserves the right to reject, in whole or in part, any contractor's input resulting from this RFI. The Air Force is issuing this repair sources sought announcement as part of a market research survey to determine if additional sources exist that could become qualified for repair of the F-16 Digital Video Recorder (DVR), NSN 5836-01-520-4682, Part Numbers MB211-XX and DVR NSN 5836-01-615-3136, PN DVR-050A-00. Responses to this Notice shall consist of an initial white paper (not to exceed 3 pages) describing the offeror's capabilities with regard to trouble shooting, testing and repairing the F-16 Digital Video Recorder (DVR). The F-16 Digital Video Recorder (DVR) records F-16 video, audio, and flight data and is applicable to all blocks of F-16 aircraft. The specific parts involved are as follows: Air Data Computer Configurations FSC NIIN MMAC Part # 5836 01-520-4682 WF MB211-XX 5836 01-615-3136 WF DVR-050A-00 The DVR is a complex, military specific system and is significantly different from commercial use video recorders. The government does not own any repair manuals or detailed parts lists for the F-16 DVR. Additionally, the government does not have any special test equipment available for repair of the F-16 DVR. Therefore, the respondent would need to be able to demonstrate the ability to obtain or create those resources necessary to perform trouble shooting, repair and testing of the F-16 DVR in a timely fashion. If the offerer is able to develop or obtain the data, manuals, and tech orders from another party, they must be able to demonstrate that they have access to such resources and the legal right to use said resources to repair assets for the government. Interested organizations who feel they possess the necessary capabilities should respond by providing the Government the following information: a point of contact, address, telephone, and fax numbers, email address, duns number, cage code, and/or tax ID number, as well as size category, (large, small, small disadvantaged, etc) a brief summary of the companies capabilities, description of facilities, personnel, related manufacturing experience, and existing safety approvals ( refer to the white paper listed above). Provide any supporting information such as commercial literature, catalogues, manuals, etc. If a respondent chooses to utilize the services of sub-tier vendors or subcontractors, those vendors or subcontractors must meet the criteria specified herein as well. Responses to this Notice are due on or before 19 September 2013. All information marked as proprietary information will be safeguarded to prevent disclosures to nongovernment personnel and entities. Currently, there is insufficient data and/or information to develop a Source Qualification Statement (SQS). Parties interested in repair the F-16 DVR will be required to work with the government in developing SQS criteria and methods. Please send all correspondence to the following: Don Hoover, via email at don.hoover@hill.af.mil, via fax at 801-777-0389, or call at 801-777-3753.
