About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Nuclear Weapons Center is conducting market research to identify qualified sources for remanufacturing Elevon Actuator Controllers (EAC), part number 2117580-2-1 and NSN 1420-01-098-5936, which are critical components of the Flight Control Servo Assembly used to guide missiles to their intended targets. The EAC is an electronic control unit that drives two identical linear actuators controlling elevon positioning and includes circuits for position signal summing, error signal amplification, servo loop compensation, and power drive stages for servo motors. Contractors must demonstrate expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the full remanufacture requirements, including disassembly, cleaning, inspection, assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and root-cause failure analysis to return unserviceable units to like-new condition. The work must meet original design requirements and all nuclear hardness requirements, with contractors providing all necessary labor, materials, facilities, and equipment for remanufacturing and testing, including functional testing and product reliability verification testing. This pre-solicitation notice was posted on September 19, 2025, with responses due by October 10, 2025.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations, making it open to all qualified contractors regardless of size or socioeconomic status. The contractor must be capable of producing 550 remanufactured EACs as part of a full rate production effort, representing a substantial quantity for this specialized defense component. The work scope includes developing EAC-specific test equipment to confirm conformance to envelope drawing 232-11704 requirements and may extend to supply chain management, logistics planning, and long-lead time parts procurement. The NAICS code 336419 (Other Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) indicates the specialized nature of this defense manufacturing requirement. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in this market research phase, though the nuclear hardness requirements and missile guidance application suggest this is a high-value, technically complex procurement with stringent quality and security standards.
Notice text
The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for the remanufacture effort for the EAC, part number 2117580-2-1 and NSN 1420-01-098-5936. The Flight Control Servo Assembly (FCSA) consists of two identical linear actuators, driven by a common electronic control unit, the Elevon Actuator Controller (EAC). The controller consists of circuits to perform actuator position signal summing, error signal amplification, servo loop compensation, and power drive stages for the servo motors, current limiting, and buffer circuits to output position, motor current monitor signals and motor voltage monitor signals. The EAC accepts analog voltage inputs proportional to the elevon position command, 28 VDC power, and +- 15 VDC power. The 28 vdc and +- 15 dc grounds are isolated outside of the servo assembly. The FCSA controls the elevon which guides the missile to its intended target. The purpose of this remanufacture effort is to provide a full rate production effort of the remanufactured EACs that meets the original design requirements and all nuclear hardness requirements.
The contractor shall be capable of producing 550 remanufactured EACs with the work to include disassembly, cleaning, inspection, assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and root-cause failure analysis to return an unserviceable EAC to a serviceable or like-new condition.
The contractor shall be capable of furnishing all labor, materials, facilities, and equipment required to accomplish the remanufacture and all required testing to include functional testing and product reliability verification testing (PRVT). Specifically, the contractor shall be capable of producing EAC-specific test equipment to confirm each produced EAC’s conformance to the requirements of envelope drawing 232-11704. Additionally, the contractor may be responsible for supply chain management, logistics planning, long-lead time parts procurement, diminishing manufacturing sources, and material shortage issues.
Throughout this effort, the contractor shall be responsible for refining the remanufacturing procedures and test procedures for the EAC. The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining configuration changes to the EAC down to the shop replaceable unit (SRU) and component level and updating the technical data package (TDP) accordingly.
