About this opportunity

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center is seeking contractors to perform overhaul and repair of rotary couplers used in multiple radar systems critical to Air Traffic Control and National Airspace System safety. The solicitation (6973GH-25-R-00026) covers eight different National Stock Number (NSN) rotary couplers with annual demands ranging from 1-7 units per type, including systems like TDWR, ASDE-3, ASR-9, and MODE-S. Contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and may be subject to first article testing if they are not the original equipment manufacturer. Proposals are due by email no later than June 20, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with evaluation likely focusing on technical capability, repair quality, and compliance with FAA specifications. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this opportunity is 811210 with a $34.0 million business size standard.

The solicitation is not set aside for small businesses and anticipates multiple contract awards. The contract structure includes one base year with four potential one-year option periods, allowing flexibility in contract performance. Contractors will be responsible for comprehensive repair services, including replacing wear components, conducting extensive testing, and meeting strict quality standards for these critical radar system components. The rotary couplers are single points of failure in radar systems, underscoring the importance of high-quality repair and maintenance. Work will be performed at the contractor's facilities, with pricing structured as a flat-rate job price covering all labor, materials, and associated costs. While specific award values are not disclosed, the contract includes both firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursable pricing arrangements, with cost-reimbursable elements for over and above work and engineering services capped at $50,000 each.
