About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground is seeking sources for repair, testing, and inspection services for the Compass Set Control C-8012E/ASN, a critical navigation component used on UH-60 Black Hawk aircraft. This Sources Sought notice is designed to identify vendors capable of repairing and servicing this specialized navigational equipment originally manufactured by Honeywell International. The government currently lacks complete technical data defining the form, fit, and function of these units, which means potential contractors must demonstrate comprehensive technical capabilities. Interested vendors will be required to complete a detailed questionnaire covering company capabilities, past performance, engineering qualifications, obsolescence management, delivery capabilities, and current inventory status. The market research response deadline is January 27, 2025, with the primary point of contact being Bonnie L. Kolaya from the Avionics Branch.
The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors within the Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (NAICS 334511) category. The successful repairer may be required to provide warranties ensuring satisfactory performance of repaired units for Army operational purposes. While specific award values are not disclosed, the contract will support the Army Integrated Logistics Supply Center's maintenance requirements for the AN/ASN-75 Gyroscope Reference Navigational Compass Set. The procurement focuses on repair services for a specific National Stock Number (NSN 5821-01-316-2739), with potential ongoing maintenance needs for this critical aircraft navigation component. The contract will likely involve detailed technical evaluation of a vendor's ability to precisely repair and calibrate these specialized compass control units to meet military specifications.
