Silver Bullets (SB) Follow On FA8505-27-SilverBullets
Summary
AI-generated · Apr 01, 2026Identify potential sources with the capability to sustain all F-15 engineering services areas. The government is conducting a voluntary RFI to gather information on companies that can support short-term engineering tasks (typically under 1,000 hours per task) under a five-year program with four option years, continuing through the end of the period of performance. These services have historically been sole-sourced to Boeing (formerly McDonnell Douglas); reports are delivered as tasks are completed via email and Boeing’s BPN website, with technical, price, and cost analyses performed as needed by the F-15 SPO, DCAA, and/or DCMA.
A complete description of the work is provided in the attached draft Performance-Work-Statement titled Silver Bullet (SB) Requirements, and interested parties should review the attached RFI for details. Participation is voluntary and does not guarantee inclusion in future solicitations or contracts, and participants will not be reimbursed for response costs.
This questionnaire/survey is for obtaining information only. Companies are encouraged to provide responses to this questionnaire but are advised that their participation is voluntary only. Contractors responding to this Request for Information (RFI) are placed on notice that participation in this survey does 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. The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements for the sustainment of all F-15 engineering services areas. All engineering tasks issued within the period of performance are intended to be short-term projects, estimated at typically less than 1000 hours. The projected period of performance for this engineering service is five-years (basic plus 4 option years) and will continue through FY32. These services have been performed sole source by Boeing for roughly 25 years, at which point it was with McDonnell Douglas which merged with Boeing in 1997. Over the past several years, F-15 Engineering has used a FFP pricing arrangement, with a most recent 12 month period of performance. Reports are delivered as tasks are completed via email and Boeing s BPN website. Thorough technical, price and/or cost analyses have been and will be performed as necessary by the F-15 System Program Office (SPO), Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) and/or the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). Please see the attached Request for Information (RFI). A complete description of work is provided in the attached draft Performance-Work-Statement (PWS): Silver Bullet (SB) Requirements.
