The United States Air Force requires a qualified source to repair the Protection and Control Assembly, which has National Stock Number 5998-01-242-8034 and Part Number 762R128G01. This assembly is a critical component used in the F-16 C/D AN/APG-68 Dual Mode Transmitter. The agency is seeking to establish a pool of certified sources capable of restoring these assemblies to operational standards while meeting strict technical and quality benchmarks. To qualify for this opportunity, bidders must notify the government Small Business Office or the contracting officer of their intent to qualify. Bidders must certify access to the necessary facilities, equipment, tooling, and personnel required to repair, inspect, test, package, and store the items. The agency also requires bidders to verify possession of a complete data package, which must include Northrop Grumman drawing 762R978G01, T365A41. The scope of work requires repairing the assembly to conform with the government-approved engineering and technical data package, including compliance with Unique Identification requirements under DFARS 211.274. Bidders must develop and submit a qualification test plan detailing how they will verify compliance with all performance, environmental, mechanical, and quality assurance requirements. Additionally, bidders must provide a pre-contract award qualification article at their own expense for form, fit, and function evaluation by the government. The agency will evaluate bidders based on their facility capabilities, data package completeness, and the results of the qualification testing. Bidders must submit a complete test report to the 416 SCMS/GUEAA for review and approval prior to contract award. The government will notify bidders whether their qualification article passed or failed within ninety days of submission. Bidders must also notify the government at least thirty days in advance of any qualification testing to allow for potential on-site government inspection.
