About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center issued a sole source justification for the repair of Stability Augmentation Control Assemblies for T-38 aircraft, awarding the contract to Pacific Electronic Enterprises Inc. The justification is based on Pacific Electronic Enterprises being the only known source capable of performing these specialized repairs, possessing unique data, capabilities, test equipment, and specialized personnel that cannot be replicated by other vendors. The Air Force conducted market research, including a Sources Sought Synopsis posted on August 1, 2024, but failed to identify alternative repair sources, and the original equipment manufacturer Teledyne Controls LLC has not responded to requests for repair data transfer. The contract structure includes a 1-year basic contract with nine 1-year option periods, beginning in September 2025, representing a follow-on to the previous contract FA811720D0032. While the specific contract value was redacted, the total estimated value encompasses repair services, over and above fees, and surge expedite fees, with estimates based on historical data and a 5% inflation rate. The Air Force determined that awarding to any other source would result in unacceptable delays and potentially increase mission-critical parts backorders for this essential aircraft component.
