Request for Information - Outboard Submersible Motors for Combat Rubber Raiding Crafts (CRRCs)

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) Special Warfare Contracting Office is conducting market research for outboard submersible motors to equip Combat Rubber Raiding Crafts (CRRCs). The requirement calls for an Initial Operational Capability (IOC) of two motors (Buy‑Try‑Decide) and a Full Operational Capability (FOC) of ninety motors. Respondents must describe product capabilities, specifications, and how the motor will meet the listed Key Performance Parameters (KPPs) and Key System Attributes (KSAs), including integration with either a reinforced flat‑bottom (drop‑stitch) hull or a V‑hull that may require advanced airdrop methods. Required deliverables include a demonstration of the ability to supply two units within six months of order receipt, supporting test data, architecture views, drawings, and a rough order‑of‑magnitude (ROM) cost estimate for varied quantities. If development or integration is needed, an estimate of development cost, warranties, tooling, portable storage, and training must be provided. Responses must be ≤15 pages (cover page included) and include small‑business utilization plans, anticipated subcontracting percentages (small vs. large, domestic vs. foreign), and all applicable SBA certifications. Offerors must indicate interest as prime or subcontractor, disclose any existing government contracts or commercial sales of the motor, and provide the required company data (CAGE, SAM registration, certifications, etc.). Submissions are due electronically by 12:00 PM Eastern on 20 May 2026 to the listed contracting officers (Jamie Sclafani and Kameron Patterson). The Government will use the information for acquisition strategy development and will not reimburse any response costs.
