Air Force Adjusts KC-X RFP To Reflect Start Date In November

The Air Force had previously announced that they would delay the proposal submission date for the KC-X tanker contract sixty days into July. Now they have updated the Request for Proposals (RFP) to reflect a contract “start” date of November 12th. The original RFP had called for a contract award date on August 29th. This 75 day slip to the start date may mean an earlier award date but it seems to mirror the decision to delay the proposal submission date.
