Description

The Naval Air Systems Command, PMA-265 (Program Office for F/A-18 and EA-18G Aircraft), intends to solicit and negotiate a modification to existing Delivery Order N0001920F0870 under sole-source Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00019-16-G-0001 with The Boeing Company. This action will procure supplies and services associated with requirements refinements under Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) 6516 for the F/A-18E/F, EA-18G, AF/A-18F, and AEA-18G Advanced Cockpit System (ACS) Upgrade. The modification will include engineering, design, drawing, and Technical Directive (TD) updates across the applicable aircraft configurations. Specifically, the scope encompasses incorporating Service Life Modernization (SLM) redlines through Redline 120 into AFC-729 and AFC-730, incorporating Advanced Networking Infrastructure (ANI) uncap/unstow wiring procedures, updating the Warning, Advisory, Threat (WAT) panel part number in AFC-730, updating the High Definition Video Recorder (HDVR) part number into AFC-729 and AFC-730, and updating retrofit drawings associated with ECP 6516, ECP 6514 (HDVR System Incorporation), and ECP 6552 (Replacement of HDVR Door) to enable a single engineering drawing release across F/A-18E/F, EA-18G, AF/A-18F, and AEA-18G aircraft.
