Engineering Support Services for the TH-1H Avionics Suite

Added: Aug 23, 2016 1:36 pm This is a Sole Source engineering support requirement for the United States Air Force (USAF) TH-1H helicopter. The requirement is to acquire sustaining engineering support for the USAF TH-1H aircraft instrument, avionic, communication and navigation systems along with all associated electrical and wiring systems. Sustaining engineering support will be provided for detail components as well as the integration of these components in the TH-1H. The primary components of the flight instrument system, commonly called the Avionics Suite, include the Multi-Function Displays (MFDs), the Engine Data Concentrator Unit (EDCU), the Air Data Computers (ADCs) and the Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS). The primary components of the avionics, communication and navigation systems include the receivers, transceivers, control heads, transmitters, transponder, and associated antennas. Sustaining engineering will also include support for any additional subsequent modification design and integration activity accomplished on the TH-1H.
This requirement will provide the SPO access to the design activity's technical personnel and data to maintain the operational, safety, suitability, and effectiveness (OSS&E) of the baseline configurations. The scope of this effort includes a wide range of analysis, to include engineering research, integration and technical support services required to isolate and analyze deficiencies related to the TH-1H rotary-wing weapon system and produce any engineering data required to implement solutions, in addition to other tasks.
