Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V) Testing

The contract calls for independent verification and validation testing of Environmental Attack Resilient Airborne Devices (EAADs) to ensure their performance under extreme environmental conditions, operational reliability, and full compliance with United States Air Force AUL standards. The work requires third-party testing services focused on validating device resilience against environmental stressors, verifying functional integrity across operational scenarios, and confirming alignment with military-specific requirements for airborne systems. The testing must be conducted by a qualified small business entity as this is a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5, with the NAICS code 541380 indicating engineering services. Performance is to be carried out at Fairchild Air Force Base, with a response deadline of July 27, 2026, and the solicitation was posted on July 22, 2026. All testing must adhere to strict Air Force protocols and result in verifiable, auditable data that supports certification of EAADs for deployment in critical defense environments.
