G-IV Inertial Reference System UpgradeThe contract involves upgrading the Inertial Reference System on the G-IV aircraft at the Air Force Research Center (AFRC). The current system, Honeywell’s LASEREF II, is no longer supported by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or any third-party vendors. To address this, the OEM offers an adapter kit to upgrade from LASEREF II to LASEREF IV, which is the only compatible successor for this aircraft model. The procurement includes the acquisition of three Inertial Reference System units, the necessary adapter kit, and installation services to be carried out by an approved avionics shop. This upgrade is essential to maintain the aircraft's navigation reliability and operational capability, as no other versions of the LASEREF system are compatible with the G-IV. The work will be performed at Edwards Air Force Base, and the contract is forecasted by AFRC under NAICS code 334511. Points of contact include the contract lead and small business specialist, offering avenues for inquiries and participation. The effort ensures the G-IV aircraft remains equipped with supported and current navigation technology.

Although this notice is not a formal request for competitive proposals, any proposals received within 45 days will be reviewed to determine if a competitive procurement is warranted. The procurement will follow the procedures outlined in FAR Part 15 rather than those used for commercial items under FAR Part 12, reflecting the specialized nature of the required supply. Although this is not a total small business set-aside, the solicitation will be posted electronically via NECO, and no hard copies or telephone requests will be entertained. Interested firms not currently approved must submit a Source Approval Request, although the procurement will proceed without delay pending any such approvals. Responses and capability statements should be submitted by the June 17, 2026 deadline to the designated government point of contact, Anna Kiessling.
