This announcement constitutes a Notice Of Contract Action Synopsis. The F-22 System Program Office (SPO), Aeronautical System Center (ASC), is planning for the F-22 full-rate production aircraft, associated equipment, and related support capabilities within a three-lot multi-year buy. The F-22 blends low observability with advanced avionics, a highly maneuverable lightweight airframe, and supercruise performance. Through its robust avionics suite and embedded air-to-air and air-to-ground capabilities, this aircraft is designed to detect, engage, and destroy an opposing force before detection. Since 1990, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company (LM Aero), Marietta, GA, has been the prime contractor for the F-22 engineering, manufacturing, and development, as well as, the build of Production Representative Test Vehicles (PRTV), PRTV II, Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) Lots 1-5, and Full Rate Production Lot 6 aircraft. Responsible sources are sought for the multi-year buy. Offerors must provide written notice to the respective contracting officer of their interest and capability to satisfy the government requirement no later than 24 March 06. The anticipated multi-year buy (60 aircraft) is a continuation of the F-22?s full rate production phase?with delivery dates beginning on/about February 2009 and continuing through December 2011. The Request for Proposal will incorporate both economic price adjustment and variation in quantity clauses to maximize production flexibility. The multi-year buy will, however, be capped at a maximum of 60 aircraft. The response for the multi year buy, solicitation number TBD, should be concise, program specific and address all of the following prerequisites: (1) possess program management, fabrication/assembly, and quality assurance personnel; (2) possess the material, engineering, factory and flight test equipment and physical facilities; (3) be a responsible contractor with demonstrated recent total aircraft system responsibility; (4) be capable of delivering qualified aircraft in accordance with the above schedule; and (5) include in their response this notice evidence of these capabilities.
