- Description
- This listing is not comprehensive but rather is an example of the type of items being researched. The United States Air Force (USAF) 771 Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (ESS) is in the process of considering an acquisition strategy for procuring medical equipment repair parts. The chosen strategy would provide for an enterprise wide (United States and overseas) USAF medical facilities supply strategy. BACKGROUND To aid in the development of the acquisition strategy, the 771 ESS / EGB flight is investigating the availability of medical repair parts and cost saving opportunities. Currently, the Air Force has over 70 procurement offices buying medical repair parts. The flight is tasked with evaluating strategic sourcing solution(s) for the Air Force. The Air Force has structured this Request for Information (RFI) to obtain industry feedback on the history and capabilities of the industry. The survey was developed to obtain what we anticipate will be useful information as a strategy is developed while not requiring an undo level of effort from industry. While specific parts have not yet been identified, the attached example of equipment being repaired might help you understand what we are looking for. DISCLAIMER The purpose of this RFI is to obtain information about the marketplace as well as capabilities for planning purposes as defined in FAR 15.201(e).

We highly encourage all interested parties to provide a complete and thorough response to this RFI, however not responding will not preclude participation should a solicitation be released. Please monitor the Federal Business Opportunities (www.fbo.gov) website for future information pertaining to this potential requirement. REQUESTED INFORMATION The USAF is requesting your input to gather information to help us refine our requirements and to identify qualified parties who might be able to meet our future requirements.
