The Department of Defense (DoD), United States Air Force (USAF), Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), Air Force Test Center (AFTC), Enterprise Services & Innovation Solutions Branch (PZZC), is currently conducting market research on behalf of the Air Force SEEK EAGLE Office (AFSEO). This is NOT a pre-solicitation notice pursuant to FAR Part 5, but is a market survey to identify sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience necessary to meet the Air Force's requirements.
AFSEO is seeking capabilities statements from potential sources for services to support maintaining F-35 Aircraft Store Compatibility (ASC) engineering capability. Historically, the AFSEO has acquired, and continues to acquire the required tools and data necessary to hold organic F-35A ASC engineering capability.

This will enable AFSEO to maintain their F-35A ASC capability, and complete testing and analysis of new aircraft/store configurations for the F-35A aircraft.
Tasks will include –
(1) Provide engineering reach-back support to AFSEO providing analysis, consultation, ground and flight test support, and/or any other products necessary to support AFSEO engineering products as directed by the AFSEO Project Manager (PM).
(2) Provide sustainment for the software tools delivered in support of maintaining an organic F-35 Aircraft Store Compatibility (ASC) engineering capability. The Contractor shall identify any issues associated with the transfer and licensing of models, simulation, Toolset updates, etc.
