Redesign and Source Qualification of F-16 CDEEU
Agency
US Air Force
Response Date
25 June 2026
RFO Reference
Market Research conducted under RFO 10.001(b)
1. Purpose of Notice
The Government seeks to identify potential vendors or distributors capable of redesigning and qualifying a source of supply for the Common Data Entry Electronic Unit (CDEEU) (NSN: 7025015093748WF). The Government anticipates utilizing a single award procurement to address current supply shortages. Additionally, the Government will utilize the results of this market research to determine if this requirement can be executed as a competitive small business set-aside. This notice constitutes market research to assess industry capabilities and does not constitute a request for proposal (RFP).
2. Mission Objective
The US Air Force requires a reliable source of supply for the Common Data Entry Electronic Unit (CDEEU) to support all USAF blocks of F-16 aircraft. Current supply shortages have resulted in Mission Impaired Capability Awaiting Part(s) (MICAPS) conditions, directly impacting fleet readiness and operational capability. The Government requires an industry partner to independently execute a redesign and manufacturing source qualification to restore supply chain stability for this critical component.
The Mission Need: The Government requires the establishment of a qualified source of supply for the F-16 CDEEU to eliminate existing operational gaps. Because the Government cannot provide troubleshooting, repair processes, or configuration data, the requirement necessitates a partner capable of independent technical development and qualification.
