This is a competitive 8(a) set-aside; only companies holding active 8(a) certification will be considered.
The requirement covers R&M engineering support for four helicopter platforms: TH-1H, UH-1N, HH-60W, and MH-139. Services include root cause analysis of in-service failures, development and updating of preventative maintenance procedures, design modification recommendations, on-site technical assistance to maintenance crews, Reliability Centered Maintenance and Age Exploration program sustainment, targeted failure analyses, avionics and structures expertise, technical procedure development, supportability analyses, data mining and trend identification, prototype development and testing, engineering drawing and technical order updates, EMC/EMI deficiency resolution, safety analysis, MTBF component investigations, and configuration management support.

The anticipated contract structure is a five-year cost-plus-fixed-fee agreement (base year plus four option years) continuing through FY32. The contractor is responsible for providing, maintaining, and calibrating all support equipment at their facility or a subcontractor's facility. Contractor-furnished material or parts must equal or exceed the quality of original material or parts. Tasks will be issued via Engineering Support Task Request forms.
