CHANGE: This is not intented to be a development program. The EFCC performs computations for equipment residing on the weapon system's multiplex buses and provides redundant communications control of the aircraft's computers. CHANGE: The objective of this program is to resolve Diminishing Manufacturer Sources (DMS) problems, improve the reliability and maintainability, increase the throughput and expand the memory of the EFCC through retrofit and modifying the existing EFCC. Upon completion of the modification, the end items will be required to pass software capability upgrade (SCU) -- -2 integration test procedures. CHANGE: The contractor will be required to handle USAF classified software/hardware at the SECRET Level. Any contractor bidding on this program must demonstrate their modified EFCC meets all requirements and functions correctly on the F-16 C/D Block 25/30/32 Integration Test Bench in Building 1515 at Hill AFB, UT by 1 March 1998. CHANGE: The USAF has a time-critical requirement for this program with the delivery of the first EEFCC anticipated to be in late 1999. Respondents to this notice will be sent a DRAFT Statement of Objectives (SOO) and Technical Requirements Document (TRD) based on the Demonstration/Validation units built by Hughes Electronic Technology Inc. (HETI). It should be noted that HETI invested in the development of the modification and has proprietary data that can not be provided to another source. This survey is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute an Invitation for Bid or Request For Proposal and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. CHANGE: Interested sources should submit written responses not later than Friday, 27 January 1998 to Mr. DOUG DAY, OO-ALC/LFK, Bldg 1233, 6072 Fir Avenue, Hill AFB, UT 84056-5820, Phone 801-777-6878, FAX 801-775-2397.
