Modernization and Sustainment of the T-7 Family of SystemsThe U.S. Air Force is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice to identify qualified contractors capable of supporting the modernization and sustainment of the T-7 Family of Systems (FoS), which includes the T-7 Air Vehicle, Ground Based Training System (GBTS), Maintenance Training System (MTS), and associated components. This effort aims to address potential updates and ongoing sustainment activities beginning around Fiscal Year 2029, supporting the transition from the legacy T-38C trainer to the new T-7 platform. The initiative involves a range of technical tasks such as planning, development, testing, production, installation, integration, and sustainment of current and upgraded T-7 capabilities, including advanced safety features like Terrain and Air Collision Avoidance, Barrier Capability evaluation, selectable G-limiters for pilot training, enhanced Pilot Vehicle Interface improvements, and upgraded embedded GPS/INS navigation systems. Sustainment responsibilities extend to depot maintenance, product support, software and technical order maintenance, configuration and data management, supply chain oversight, and fleet management, requiring expertise across a broad spectrum of engineering and management disciplines. The Air Force is seeking responses from companies with demonstrated experience in aircraft sustainment and modernization, strong technical and program management capabilities, and the ability to perform all aspects of sustainment engineering, including software and hardware support, integration with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and complex supply chain management. Respondents should detail their qualifications for the modernization tasks and sustainment roles, including relevant facilities, teaming arrangements, and their business size classifications. Submission is not a request for proposal but will inform acquisition strategies, potentially impacting whether the award will be full and open or set aside for small businesses. Responses are due by July 16, 2026.

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) plans to award a contract, on a sole-source basis under FAR 6.302-1, to The Boeing Company for the procurement of approximately 180 retrofit kits for the Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation (UARRSI) Seal Dam and Clam Shell for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. This contract is scheduled for award in the third quarter of the Government Fiscal Year 2027, with all deliveries to be completed by the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2033. The P-8A aircraft, based on a modified Boeing 737-800 airframe, incorporates numerous specialized systems to meet Navy requirements, and Boeing holds proprietary and limited rights to the underlying technical data and special expertise needed to fulfill the Government’s needs, making it uniquely qualified as the sole source for this effort. Interested parties are invited to submit Capability Statements that demonstrate their qualifications, technical ability, and access to necessary technical data relevant to developing, testing, and manufacturing retrofit kits for aircraft similar to the P-8A. These submissions must be concise, focused, and provide detailed information about the company’s experience, personnel, technical approach, and business profile, including small business status if applicable. Responses should be submitted electronically by the specified deadline, and must include explicit permissions for the Government to share technical information internally and with authorized contractors. The Government has no obligation to award a contract or reimburse costs related to submissions, and responses that do not comply with the requirements or that attempt to compete without the necessary proprietary data access may not be considered.

Full Description

Show more

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to issue a contract action to the Boeing Company (Boeing), 7755 E Marginal Way S., Seattle, WA 98108-4002, on an other than full and open basis for the procurement of Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation (UARRSI) Seal Dam  & Clam Shell retrofit kits for P-8A Poseidon aircraft.



Contract action award is planned to occur in 3rd Quarter FY27.  The planned period of performance is 60 months.  The effort shall be procured pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements." The Boeing P-8A consists of a basic Boeing commercial 737-800 ERX air vehicle modified to meet Navy requirements, and numerous systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities. Boeing is the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of the P-8A airframe, as well as the sole integrator of the P-8A’s systems and subsystems for avionics, communications, mission, and weapon capabilities, and therefore is the only responsible source with the requisite knowledge, experience, and technical data to develop and implement P-8A retrofit kits. As the P-8A Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Boeing is the only source that has the knowledge and access to the technical data necessary to develop each kit.  Without concluding, that an alternate source could fulfill the requirements, the timeline to compete and qualify that alternate source is expected to significantly delay ongoing P-8A system design and development efforts. Therefore, pursuing alternate sources to fulfill the contemplated requirements would result in an unacceptable delay in fulfilling those requirements for U.S. Navy Fleet and international country end users.


The 6 May 2026 Sources Sought Notice provided the opportunity for interested persons by 21 May 2026 to submit a Capability Statement identifying their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. The Government has completed its review of all written information submitted on or before 21 May 2026 in response to the Sources Sought Notice. The Government will not consider any information submitted by interested parties in response to this Presolicitation Notice. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Boeing directly via Ms. Paige Bisset at (425) 965-8077 and paige.v.bisset@boeing.com.
