Radio Frequency Calibration Backplane Assembly (RFCBA)

The United States Air Force is conducting market research to identify potential sources for the development, production, delivery, installation, and testing of S-Band Radio Frequency Calibration Backplane Assemblies (RFCBA). The RFCBA is a replacement for an existing system and must meet specific technical requirements, including operating at S-Band frequencies (2-4GHz) and complying with provided technical data packages. The contractor will be required to deliver a 100% technical data package in native CAD/CAE/CAM formats and 2-D PDF formats. The contractor must also ensure that the RFCBA is designed and tested to meet the required specifications. Key aspects of this opportunity include: • The requirement for a FFF replacement RFCBA • The need for a technical data package in native CAD/CAE/CAM formats and 2-D PDF formats • The requirement for testing to ensure compliance with FFF requirements • The need for unlimited data rights for all reverse engineering and associated documentation • The potential for teaming arrangements or joint ventures to fulfill the Government's needs • The requirement for a capabilities statement package demonstrating the ability to perform in accordance with the paragraphs above
