Quick Summary

The Department of the Air Force is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential sources for the repair of F-15E APG-82v1 Radar System components. This includes the Radar Power Supply (RPS), Common Integrated Sensor Processor (CISP), Receiver Exciter (REX), and Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA). The Government does not own the technical data for these items, and the system is considered non-commercial. Responses are due by March 24, 2026.

Scope of Work

The RFI seeks to identify contractors with the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements for the repair of the specified APG-82v1 radar components. Contractors must be able to furnish all necessary material, support equipment, tools, test equipment, and services. All contractor-furnished replacement parts must meet or exceed the quality of original parts. Interested sources must also maintain facilities and cleared personnel for handling, storing, and maintaining information and operating systems up to and including Secret classification. Monthly production status reports and addressing deficiencies via the Joint Deficiency Reporting System (JDRS) are also required.

Contract Details

This is a market research effort; participation does not guarantee future solicitations or contract awards, and the Government will not reimburse participants for associated expenses. The current sole source for these components is Raytheon Technologies. The APG-82(V)1 is replacing the APG-70, and while the USAF deems the workload organic, it lacks the necessary technical data, which is solely owned by Raytheon. These components are currently repaired under an Interim Contractor Support (ICS) contract with Boeing as the prime and Raytheon as a subcontractor.

Submission & Evaluation

To participate, interested parties should provide documentation supporting their company's capability in meeting these requirements, including responses to a detailed Contractor Capability Survey (Parts I and II). If experience is lacking in a particular area, details on how to overcome this (e.g., teaming, subcontracting) should be provided. Failure to provide documentation may hinder the Government's assessment of capabilities. Samples are not available for evaluation.

Eligibility / Set-Aside

Both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate in this market research. Joint ventures or teaming arrangements are also encouraged.
