Repair of NSN # 5998-01-477-1786

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking a contractor to perform repair services for a Circuit Card Assembly (NSN 5998-01-477-1786), with two potential service efforts: Test, Teardown, and Evaluation (TT&E) only, or TT&E plus repair. The solicitation requires the contractor to conduct comprehensive visual, mechanical, and electrical testing to assess the condition of the end item and identify components requiring repair or replacement. Contractors must restore items to serviceable, like-new condition, meeting original specifications through cleaning, configuring, refinishing, and testing. The procurement will use Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation criteria, with quotes due by January 27, 2025. New sources must comply with qualification requirements per clause 52.209-1, and the contract carries a DO-A7 priority rating requiring origin inspection and acceptance.

The solicitation is not a small business set-aside and falls under NAICS category 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a size standard of $34.00M. The initial solicitation covers three units for both TT&E and repair efforts, with potential for future expansion. The work will be performed at the government's facility, with specific packaging and preservation requirements outlined in detailed attachments. Contractors must implement strict counterfeit prevention controls, maintain ESD protection measures, and report through the CAV AF system. Repairs are considered uneconomical if costs exceed 75% of the new item price, and quality defects within one year must be corrected at no additional cost if determined to be the contractor's fault. The item contains critical technology with export controls, limiting distribution to DoD and U.S. DoD contractors only.
