F-15SA Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM)

Sources Sought Notice: FA8575_F15_PDM (Follow-Up)

The U.S. Government (USG) is issuing this follow-up Sources Sought (SS) notice for the F-15SA Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) program.

Important Information

• Market Research Only: This is for information and planning purposes only. It is not a request for proposal and does not guarantee a future contract.


• Based on Your Feedback: The USG has updated the program requirements based on the industry feedback we received from the previous Sources Sought. We are now asking for a second review.


• Flight Safety & Facilities: Because the UIL inspection is critical for flight safety, any potential contractor must identify the existing facilities where they would perform this work if they are awarded the contract.


• Ongoing Questions: You can email us questions at any time. The USG will do its best to answer them and will update this Sources Sought notice if needed.

Program Details

• First 4 Jets: The first 4 jets will be inducted under the basic contract for Validation and Verification (VAL/VER).


• Total Jets: The entire PDM program (basic contract plus all options) will cover a total of 145 F-15SA aircraft (82 Production and 63 Converted). This total depends on the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) funding all options and the USG choosing to exercise them.
