Components must be FAA-approved to ensure aircrew safety and airworthiness.

Test and evaluation must be completed within 15 calendar days of receipt; repair/overhaul must be completed within 90 calendar days. The contractor must provide failure data reports and Component Repair Records to USCG ALC within five business days of rework completion.
