About this file
This document is an Amendment #1 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB #2026-1200-0068) issued by the State of Alaska Department of Public Safety Aircraft Section for Fairbanks Avionics. The amendment, dated September 26, 2025, extends the bid timeline by seven days, with the new bid due date set for October 13, 2025 at 1:30pm AKST. The solicitation seeks avionics repair and service providers, with the contract award planned for October 30, 2025. All responsive and responsible bidders meeting the specifications will be awarded a contract, with a key requirement being the capability to perform work on at least one aircraft listed in the Scope of Work.
The amendment includes two key vendor questions addressing technician certification and supervision requirements. Notably, the method of award has been modified to allow multiple contractors, provided they meet specific criteria. Part 145 certified repair stations can utilize non-certificated technicians under direct supervision, with the supervising technician physically present. The bid schedule and Bid Schedule A have been updated, and vendors must indicate their aircraft capabilities on the revised schedule to be considered responsive. The procurement is being managed by Rachelle Alger, Procurement Specialist 3, with contact information provided for potential inquiries.

Vendor Questions:
Question 1: We do not currently have the Beechcraft King Air 350i or the Airbus H125 on our capabilities list. All other aircraft are listed and approved. Would you like us to include a statement in our bid clarifying our capabilities list?
Answer: Vendors shall indicate their capabilities on the updated Bid Schedule A.
Question 2: On page 7, the bottom paragraph states: “Avionics repairs and services shall be accomplished by a FAA certified Avionics Repairman or an FAA certificated Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic as appropriate to the work performed.”
As a Part 145 certificated repair station, our technicians sign under the Repair Station certificate. We often have non-certificated technicians working under the direct supervision of a certificated lead. Do we need to notify the State each time non-certificated technicians work on an aircraft, or is it sufficient to state that our technicians will perform the work under supervision of certificated leads as required?
Answer: It's fairly common to have non-AP’s working under a Part 145 Repair Station. That is one of the privileges of a Repair Station where the work and the Return to Service are performed under the Repair Station Certificate. Under supervision for non-certificated or non-repairman shall be defined as the supervising technician is physically present.
