Summary

AI-generated · Feb 05, 2026

On-site contractor support is sought to sustain and enhance the F-15 Maintenance Testability Analysis Program (MTAP) by providing the technical expertise to implement hardware and software updates, provide F-15 production support, and perform modifications needed to improve the Reliability and Maintainability of the F-15 peculiar avionics. This effort includes engineering investigations for Product Quality Deficiency Reports (PQDR) and Material Improvement Programs (MIP), system-level maintenance analysis, part qualification testing, Test Program Set (TPS) re-host analysis reviews, logistic/engineering studies, vertical testability analysis, and related government engineering investigations. Contractors must be on site at the facility housing MTAP; the government will provide computers and workstations, while the contractor must furnish all materials, support equipment, tools, test equipment, and services, and maintain/calibrate all equipment; a Secret clearance is required.

Market research is being conducted to identify potential sources capable of meeting these requirements. This is currently a sole-source effort to Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC); no assets will be provided for reverse engineering or training, and samples will not be supplied. Participation in this survey does not guarantee future award. The arrangement is expected to be a three-year Requirements Contract (basic plus two one-year options) through FY26, with NGC as the incumbent and the contract focused on services (no manufacturing or data ownership).

Request For Information F-15 Maintenance Testability Analysis Program This service is sole source to NGC. There is no manufacturing or data to own from this contract since it is a service contract. The government does not have assets available to provide to another company for reverse engineering or training of personnel on these systems. This requirement is being considered for a stand-alone contract with NGC. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED FULL RFI AND SURVEY The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the technical expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements to implement hardware and software updates to the F-15 Maintenance Testability Analysis Program components. The potential source must maintain a clearance at the Secret level. These services include providing the technical expertise and engineering staff necessary to implement the hardware and software updates, F-15 production support, and modifications necessary to maintain and improve the Reliability and Maintainability (R&M) of the F-15 peculiar avionics. This acquisition will continue a contractor sustainment effort that corrects system level deficiencies. The contractor sustainment effort provides the technical expertise and engineering staff necessary to implement the hardware and software updates, F-15 production support, and modifications necessary to maintain and improve the Reliability and Maintainability (R&M) of the F-15 peculiar avionics. Specifically, this includes engineering investigations in support of Product Quality Deficiency Reports (PQDR) and Material Improvement Programs (MIP) for the F-15 aircraft peculiar avionics. Additionally, the contractor support includes performing system level maintenance analysis, part s qualification testing, Test Program Set (TPS) re-host analysis reviews, logistic/engineering studies, vertical testability analysis, and engineering investigations for the Government. The Government has determined the most efficient method to accomplish the requirements is to place contractor personnel on-site within the facility that houses the F-15 Peculiar Systems Maintenance Testability Analysis Program (MTAP). Samples will not be provided for supplier to evaluate. The Government will supply computers and work stations for the contractor located on Warner Robins AFB. Contractor shall furnish all material, support equipment, tools, test equipment, and services. The contractor is responsible for providing, maintaining, and calibrating all support equipment required at their facility or a subcontractor s facility. Contractor furnished material or parts used for replacement shall equal or exceed the quality of the original material or parts. Northrop Grumman Coporation (NGC) is the current sourced contractor for this effort. Contractors/Institutions responding to this market research are placed on notice that participation in this survey may not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards. The government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation in this survey. This is currently a sole source acquisition to NGC. The most recent contract was awarded to NGC in 2021 on GSA Contract Number GS-00F-128CA. This is expected to be a three-year Requirements Contract (basic plus two one-year ordering periods) and will continue through FY26. This service is sole source to NGC. There is no manufacturing or data to own from this contract since it is a service contract. The government does not have assets available to provide to another company for reverse engineering or training of personnel on these systems. This requirement is being considered for a stand-alone contract with NGC.
