    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), is seeking information from industry regarding the design, development, testing, and manufacturing of a system to enhance the P-8A Multi-Functional Data Acquisition Unit (MFDAU). The objective is to replace the obsolete PCMCIA cards currently used for recording flight data with a more efficient storage solution that integrates seamlessly into the existing MFDAU, while also expanding data recording capabilities via ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 data buses. This initiative is critical for maintaining the operational effectiveness of the P-8A platform, with plans to procure one system anticipated for delivery in fiscal year 2025. Interested parties must submit a Capability Statement by email to Amanda Ellerbe and Ronald Hickman within 15 calendar days of the notice, detailing their qualifications and approach to the project.
