About this opportunity

The United States Coast Guard has issued a Special Notice for the repair and overhaul of audio control panels used in HC-144 aircraft. Solicitation number 70Z03826QL0000038 is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation subpart 12.201 for commercial items. The solicitation was posted on January 8, 2026, with a due date of January 14, 2026. The Coast Guard anticipates awarding a firm-fixed-price purchase order on a sole-source basis to Orbit Communication Systems Inc. This restricted solicitation invites all responsible sources to submit quotations, though the government has determined that only the original equipment manufacturer can fulfill the requirement due to the specialized nature of the work and proprietary technical data involved.

The Coast Guard seeks to procure repair services for twelve audio control panels total: six units with part number AL23-3140-9MODVER3 and six units with part number AL24-3370-9MODVER4, with optional quantities of four and eight additional units respectively at the same unit price. Prospective contractors must demonstrate the technical expertise, engineering data access, and ability to obtain Original Equipment Manufacturer parts necessary to complete the repairs to specification. Eligible contractors must be ISO 9000 compliant and either the OEM, an OEM-authorized repair center, or an FAA-certified 145 repair center; non-OEM vendors must perform at least 50 percent of work at their own FAA-certified facility. All repairs must be completed within 90 days after receipt of material and delivered to the USCG Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina within 45 days of the purchase order receipt. Contractors are required to provide a detailed Teardown and Inspection Report within five calendar days of component inspection and furnish a Certificate of Conformance upon completion.
