Quick Summary

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is conducting market research through a Sources Sought notice for Lycoming engine 'customer overhaul' services and parts for its fleet of Cessna G1000 aircraft. This is not a formal solicitation but aims to identify qualified industry partners. The anticipated contract type is Firm Fixed Price. Responses are due by 10:00 a.m. CST on February 19, 2026.

Scope of Work

The requirement is for non-personal services under a potential Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide 'customer overhaul' services for Lycoming engines, specifically models TIO-540-AJ1A, IO-540-AB1A5, and IO-540-AC1A5, used in the FBI's Cessna 182, T206H, and 206H aircraft. Key aspects include:

  • Engine Overhaul: Adherence to Lycoming Service Bulletin (SB) 240W or greater standards, including specific configurations like single electric magnetos, fine wire spark plugs, exhaust with EGT probe holes, and roller lifters. Engines are typically removed at 2000 flight hours and returned as a 'Customer Overhauled Package' to maintain engine history.
  • Parts Provision: Supply of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and FAA compliant engine accessory parts upon request.
  • Documentation: Provision of all documents related to customer overhaul requests, including ET001 Documentation, AD compliance lists, 8130 Parts tags, and Logbook Stickers with time identified. A factory type run report with documented parameters is also required.
  • Compliance: All components replaced must be OEM genuine Lycoming parts, and all applicable FAA Airworthiness Directives (ADs), Lycoming Service Bulletins (SBs), Service Instructions (SIs), and Service Letters (SLs) must be up-to-date.
