1.0 DESCRIPTION 1.1 The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) is soliciting capability statements from sources qualified to provide comprehensive support for the Advanced Architecture Phase, Amplitude and Time Simulator (A2PATS), a proprietary system developed by Textron Systems. This support is crucial for the operational readiness of the Electronic Warfare Systems Integration Test Environment (EW SITE), which serves multiple labs and key naval aviation programs including EA-6B, EA-18G, F/A-18, MH- 60, E-2C, P-8A and F-35). 1.2 THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes – it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This request for information does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. Further, the Navy is not seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Responders are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI; all costs associated with responding to the RFI will be solely at the interested party's expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Beta Sam website. It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor the site for additional information pertaining to this requirement. 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 The requested work is expected to occur at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), Point Mugu, California. 2.2 Delivery Period: To be determined at time of contract award 2.3 Limitations: All work must be completed in accordance with Advanced Architecture Phase Amplitude and Time Simulator (A2PATS) System. 3.0 REQUESTED INFORMATION 3.1 Capability to perform incidental services for on-call and on-site maintenance for the A2PATS System 3.2 Provide repair and system upgrades, including replacement parts for existing and newly acquired A2PATS systems 4.0 RESPONSES 4.1 Given that the A2PATS is a proprietary Textron System, any response should place significant emphasis on the following points: 4.1.1 Authorization and Access: Clearly articulate the ability to work on a proprietary system. This includes demonstrating authorized access to Textron's technical data, diagnostic software, proprietary hardware, and a reliable supply chain for authentic replacement parts. 4.1.2 Partnership Status: If not Textron itself, the responding entity must specify its relationship with the OEM (e.g., authorized service partner, licensed reseller, official subcontractor). 4.1.3 Relevant Experience: Capability statements must go beyond general maintenance experience.
