Repair of C130 Air Speed Computer

The United States Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center, through the 422nd Supply Chain Management Squadron at Tinker Air Force Base, is conducting market research to identify potential sources for repair services on C-130 Air Speed Computer units (Part Number 630-37070-235, NSN 6610-01-101-1905). Contractors must provide all required labor, materials, facilities, and equipment to accomplish repair, test, preservation, packaging, and return of the units, along with supply chain management, logistics, forecasting, long-lead parts procurement, reparable forecasting, and obsolescence management. Potential sources must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package that meets the Qualification Requirements (RQR-848) standards, which require documentation including technical data rights certifications, quality assurance compliance (AS9100, ISO 9001:2008, or NATO AQAP-2070), repair process sheets, inspection method sheets, and sub-tier supplier lists. This is a market research notice only with no solicitation currently available and no contractual commitment anticipated; interested parties must submit business information by March 11, 2026, to 422scms.rfi.responses@us.af.mil, and SAR packages must be submitted electronically through DoD SAFE to 429SCMS.SASPO.Workflow@us.af.mil. The government is open to all business types including Large Business, Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a) certified firms, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses.

This pre-solicitation notice includes no set-aside designation and does not identify any current contractors or incumbents. The estimated repair requirement involves 125 units across one basic configuration and four optional configurations (25 units each), though no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this market research phase. Potential sources must independently acquire necessary technical data; however, requests for Technical Orders and Engineering Drawings can be submitted to the Tinker AFB Public Sales Office for a fee ($65.00 per approved Technical Order and $30.00 per-line for engineering drawings with a $150.00 minimum). Approved sources must maintain ongoing compliance with qualification standards and notify the Engineering Support Activity of any changes to ownership, processes, sub-tier suppliers, or quality deficiencies, with two failures of initial production evaluation serving as grounds for removal from approval. All communications and submissions must be in English, and requesters should allow 30 calendar days before requesting status updates on technical data requests.
