Contractors must be an Original Equipment Manufacturer, OEM-authorized repair center, or FAA-certified 145 repair center with ISO 9000 compliance or an equivalent quality system acceptable to the Coast Guard. All work must comply with OEM specifications, Component Maintenance Manuals, and current Service Bulletins, with a required 90-day turnaround time from receipt of materials.

The deadline for submission of quotations is February 16, 2026, just five days from the posting date.
This is a restricted solicitation with no small business set-aside, and the government anticipates awarding a firm-fixed price purchase order on a sole-source basis to Ipeco Inc.

The anticipated award value has not been disclosed in the solicitation documents. All repaired components must be returned airworthy and suitable for Coast Guard aircraft installation with appropriate airworthiness certification, and must be packaged in compliance with CMM and ATA specifications. The place of performance is Elizabeth City, North Carolina, where the Aviation Logistics Center will conduct final inspection and acceptance.
