Technicians must be trained and certified by Evident (Wabtec) for both the OmniScan X-3 and Epoch 650 units. The contractor shall deliver evaluation reports with repair quotes before proceeding with repairs, which require Contracting Officer authorization. Post-repair calibration services are required. Work is performed at the contractor's facility; the government ships equipment to the contractor. Period of performance runs from approximately August 17, 2026 through August 16, 2027. Interested parties may submit information by email with subject line referencing solicitation N4523A26Q132, though this notice is not a request for quotes and the government retains sole discretion on the award decision.
