All Interested Contractors – Due to the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO), Source Selection procedures are a quickly changing policy landscape. Based upon the FY26 NDAA, Commercial Solution Opening (CSO) use is expanded beyond “innovate” solutions to all commercial products. It is anticipated that this change will be codified into U.S. Code § 3458 on 6/30/2026. However, there is no set date regarding when the DoD regulations will reflect this change; therefore, the team plans to submit a Class Deviation for approval to deviate from the regulations as soon as the U.S. Code is updated. Approval of the Class Deviation cannot be guaranteed; however, again the team will attempt to obtain this approval.


If successful, the draft RFP will be revised in order to align more with a CSO likely limiting proposal requirements from what is currently required on the Draft RFP. Furthermore, if approved, a CSO would likely result in a FAR based contract with a clause set similar to the currently released Draft RFP. With that said, if the approval is obtained, the draft RFP will be revised accordingly as soon as possible after approval.

The C-17 System Program Office (SPO) has a requirement for a system that can capture all data that is present across all data buses and fuel quantity computers of the C-17 aircraft. The Database Recording System (DBRS) effort (AF 1067, AMC 19-158) would retrofit the United States Air Force (USAF) C-17 fleet with Line Replaceable Units (LRU) to record the data bus traffic on the C-17 bus network. This comprehensive aircraft data collection system will record, transfer and retain all databus traffic on the C-17. As part of this effort, the hardware first needs to be procured. Once the hardware is procured, installs will be accomplished in the field as the LRU will connect to a wiring harness permanently installed on the aircraft. At this time, national stock numbers (NSN) and part numbers are unknown as this effort will be competitively sourced. The procurement strategy would be to purchase the LRU and spares for all 222 of the USAF C-17 fleet. Twelve testing articles for Boeing Avionics Integration Support Facility (AISF) and USAF flight tests (7 LRUs and 5 spares) will also be procured to support integration. Three kits and one spare will be procured by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Airlift Management Program (NAMP) to support its fleet. The total number of LRUs will be 257 (222 for the USAF C-17 fleet, 5 Boeing AISF, 3 NAMP, and 27 spares).
