How to bid on F-15 Advanced Display Core Processor II (ADCP II) repair for DEPT of Defense

What the agency is buying

The Department of Defense is conducting market research to find companies capable of repairing the F-15 Advanced Display Core Processor II (ADCP II), NSN 5825-01-684-8917FX. This component processes target data and controls aircraft sensory information for the flight crew.

The selected contractor would be responsible for providing all necessary materials, tools, support and test equipment, and calibration services for these repairs. The government does not own the technical data or rights for this item, and Boeing is currently the known sole-source repair contractor due to proprietary integration data and manufacturing rights.

Key dates and deadlines

This Request for Information (RFI) was published on August 06, 2026. Responses are due by September 06, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET. This is market research only and is not a solicitation for a contract award. The government will not reimburse participants for expenses related to this survey.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is for businesses with the expertise, capabilities, and experience to repair complex avionics like the F-15 ADCP II. This includes firms that can meet qualification requirements for repairing military aircraft components, especially those with experience in systems where proprietary data is a factor.

Both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate, including those considering joint ventures or teaming arrangements. The government is specifically interested in understanding how potential sources would overcome challenges related to the lack of government-owned data.

Practical tips for a competitive response

When responding to an RFI, focus on clearly demonstrating your firm's unique capabilities and experience relevant to the specific item mentioned, the F-15 ADCP II. Even though this is not a contract, a thorough response can help the agency understand the market better and potentially shape future solicitations.

Highlight any specialized certifications, equipment, or personnel your company possesses that are directly applicable to the repair of advanced display core processors or similar complex avionics. If you plan to team or subcontract, clearly outline those arrangements and how they would contribute to meeting the requirements. Since the government does not own the data, emphasize any proprietary processes or unique solutions your company has developed that could address this challenge.
