Requirements Description:

The HUD facilitates helicopter pilots to use the Aviator’s Night Vision Imaging System (ANVIS) goggles during flight operations. The HUD supplies critical operational information to the pilot superimposed over the ANVIS image. The HUD diminishes the requirement for the pilot and co-pilot to look at the flight instruments, thus allowing them to concentrate on scanning outside of the cockpit.

The Government does not possess the technical data package (TDP) for the parts. The TDP is not available for release.

The assigned North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code is 333314.

Requested Response Information:

The U.S. Army is seeking to identify vendors with the capability to repair HUD assemblies and subassemblies. The vendors must have extensive knowledge of the ANVIS HUD system as the U.S. Army will not provide any test equipment or facilities for this effort. At a minimum, information submitted should include but is not limited

to the following types of documentation: Questionnaire information on previous Government and commercial contracts, and data rights.

In your response, please include your company name, CAGE code, and a technical point of contract with email address and telephone number.
