This announcement constitutes a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential sources for the procurement of dimming curve firmware updates for an estimate of 320 Cabin Pressure and On-Board Oxygen Generating Monitoring System (CPOMS) Cabin Pressure Altimeter (CPA) (part number ASI9121) units, new labels for the updated units, ready for issue (RFI) testing of units, and options for major/minor repairs for units not RFI. This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP). Firms that can provide for the USN’s requirements as described below are encouraged to identify themselves. The ASI9121 CPA is the central component of the CPOMS. All external sensors interface to this device. The CPA provides the pilot with pressurization and system status data to ensure a safe flight. The system records all sensor data as well as any Built in Test (BIT) faults obtained during flight. The CPA is the central component that collects and stores sensor and in-flight data for post mission retrieval. The CPA software, which provides this functionality, is embedded within the CPA. Mercury Systems Inc., as a supplier to Boeing, is the Original Equipment Manufacturer; developed the firmware update; and has the existing infrastructure, facilities, and equipment to flash the upgrade. Vendors interested in responding to the RFI shall provide a one to two-page overview statement addressing the following: 1) Brief statement of interest/capabilities, including similar work completed, and 2) Any other information at vendor discretion such as catalogs, drawings/illustrations, technical manuals, training description/material, pricing, testing documentation, brochures and/or any other documentation that describes the capabilities, interfaces, and specifications. Responses shall be submitted electronically to the e-mail address provided below. Responses are requested by 15 September 2023. Earliest possible response is encouraged. Responses will be reviewed, and additional information may be requested from individual vendors, if desired by the Government.
