About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking qualified contractors to remanufacture 95 C-5 Hydraulic Winches (NSN 1680-01-216-4525, Part Number 42420-4) to restore them to serviceable condition and Original Equipment Manufacturer specifications. The government seeks contractors with demonstrated remanufacture data, expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements, as the government does not own the proprietary data rights necessary for third-party remanufacture. Key contract requirements include conducting First Article Testing (FAT) on two government-furnished winches during Phase 1 before proceeding to Phase 2 remanufacture of the remaining 93 units, furnishing all materials, support equipment, tools, and test equipment, developing an Organizational-Level Maintenance Manual, maintaining monthly production status reports, and achieving a 95 percent pass rate on initial Defense Contract Management Agency inspection with remaining failures passing on second attempt. Contractors must also limit validated Product Quality Deficiency Reports to no more than one per 12-month ordering period and comply with Item Unique Identification marking, counterfeit parts detection, supply chain risk management, and government property management requirements. The solicitation posting date is March 12, 2026, with proposal responses due by May 12, 2026, and interested parties must submit capability survey responses within 15 days of posting to Karen Beckford, Contracting Officer.
This solicitation contains no set-aside designations and identifies Onboard Hoist & Winch as the known sole source contractor, indicating a potentially restricted competitive environment. The contract structure consists of a 24-month basic period plus three one-year option periods, with performance to be conducted at the contractor's facility in Warner Robins, Georgia. While specific award value or budget information is not disclosed in the solicitation documents, the total projected requirement encompasses 95 remanufactured hydraulic winch assets over the five-year performance period. The contractor is responsible for all aspects of remanufacture operations, including facility management, equipment calibration, quality assurance compliance, and on-time delivery utilizing fast transportation methods. Replacement materials and parts must equal or exceed the quality of original equipment, and the contractor must provide monthly accountability reporting on inventory, units in work, and remanufacture stage by serial number for all assets in their possession or subcontractor facilities.
