    Description

    Sources Sought DEPT OF DEFENSE is seeking prospective vendors for an engineering services effort regarding the B-2 Data Entry Panel (DEP). The B-2 DEP is a flight safety critical unit used for avionics monitoring and control capabilities. The unit is designed for nuclear environment operations and is in critical need of obsolescence resolution. The purpose of this effort includes the design, build, and qualification of support equipment for test and manufacturing of the DEP, as well as updating the Technical Data Package (TDP) to enable future procurement and repair. Potential vendors must be capable of evaluating proposed alternatives for long-term sustainment, maintaining LRU form, fit, and function, and meeting all current B-2 DEP P-Spec requirements. Northrop Grumman is currently the only known source with qualifications for this effort.

This antenna is part of the B-2 Ku-Band radar system used to identify and determine the range and bearing of the vehicle. It also serves as a secondary structure that forms a portion of the outer mold line. The unit is designed for low observable and nuclear environment operations. The purpose of this effort is to resolve obsolescence, develop, and qualify a sustainable configuration for manufacturing. The Air Force is in search of vendors who can evaluate the Bill of Materials (BOM), production/test equipment, and documentation, identify obsolete parts and materials, propose alternatives for long-term sustainment, maintain the form, fit, and function of the antenna, meet all existing specification requirements, address testing requirements, and develop and deliver a full production Technical Data Package. At this time, Northrop Grumman is the only known source with qualifications to execute this effort. However, the Air Force is conducting this market survey to identify potential sources that may possess the specialized expertise, capabilities, and experience required. It is important to note that participation in this survey does not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards, and the government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation. Prospective vendors must demonstrate their capabilities and past performance in areas such as low observable applications, repair and manufacture of B-2 aircraft antennas, B-2 aircraft integration testing, B-2 aircraft environmental testing, and compliance with security clearance requirements. Additionally, vendors must maintain a corporate cost accounting system that meets the requirements of DCMA and/or DCAA, and must not be owned by a foreign company or individual for the duration of any potential government contract. Small businesses are encouraged to indicate if conditions exist for a small business set-aside for any portion of the requirement, and provide information on their qualifications and experience.
