74243 - EOTS GAP ANALYSIS SERVICE

This sole‑source modification awards Lockheed Martin Corporation a contract to perform a gap‑analysis and software sustainment capability assessment for the F‑35 Joint Strike Fighter Electro‑Optical Targeting System (EOTS) Technical Refresh 3 (TR‑3). The effort will define requirements, tasks, data, deliverables, and infrastructure needed for the 402d Software Engineering Group to build an organic sustainment capability for the EOTS Operational Flight Program. Work includes phase‑in, execution, phase‑out, multiple deliverables, on‑site visits, travel, and remote “reach‑back” support. The award is justified by Lockheed Martin’s status as the original equipment manufacturer and its unique technical knowledge, configuration data, and test‑environment access. • Scope: Requirements definition, gap analysis, and sustainment implementation for F‑35 EOTS TR‑3 software. • Contractor: Lockheed Martin Corporation (sole source). • Location: Work performed at Robins AFB, GA with contractor and government site visits.
