    Description

    The Department of the Air Force is seeking proposals for the Air Force Test and Analysis Tool (AFTAT) Information Technology program, which involves updating the STARLIMS technology platform to version 12.7 and converting its interface to a full HTML5 format. The objective of this procurement is to enhance data accessibility and operational efficiency by upgrading the existing AFTAT system, which currently relies on an outdated interface that limits usability. This initiative is critical for providing real-time data for aviation operations, and vendors must demonstrate experience with AFTAT and STARLIMS, including a requirement for 500 direct labor hours for staff involved in the project. Interested parties should contact Meredith Setterfield at meredith.setterfield@us.af.mil or Richard T. Saltsman at richard.saltsman@us.af.mil for further details, as the project is set aside for small businesses and will require on-site support at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio.

    PWS - AFTAT HTML Conversion_FY25_2-5-25.docx
    The Air Force Petroleum Office (AFPET/PTPL) is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Air Force Test and Analysis Tool (AFTAT) IT program update, focusing on converting its interface to a full HTML5 format while upgrading the technology platform to STARLIMS 12.7. The AFTAT system provides critical real-time data for various aviation operations and currently operates through an outdated XFD interface, restricting accessibility. Vendors are required to offer comprehensive support across project management, system analysis, technical support, and validation related to this conversion. Experience with AFTAT and STARLIMS, specifically 500 direct labor hours, is mandatory for staff working on the project. Key tasks include planning, upgrading existing technologies, converting client scripts, testing, providing training, and on-site support during the go-live phase. All upgrades must meet USAF cybersecurity standards, and contractors will report quarterly on progress. Notably, no security clearance is needed for staff due to remote work requirements, with some on-site travel to Wright-Patterson AFB for testing and support anticipated. This initiative reflects the Air Force's goal to enhance data accessibility and operational efficiency.
