Quick Summary

The Department of the Air Force, FA8250 AFSC PZAAA, has issued a Sole Source Solicitation for the repair of Transmitters for the JTE Program, encompassing multiple National Stock Numbers (NSNs). This opportunity is being awarded to Applied Systems Engineering, Inc. due to their proprietary technologies and technical data.

Scope of Work

This contract requires Test, Teardown, and Evaluation (TT&E) and subsequent repair of various RADAR Transmitters (e.g., NSN 5840015999081FD, 5840016594500FD, 5840016593010FD, 5840016594499FD). The objective is to restore these items to a serviceable, like-new condition, meeting original specifications. Key deliverables include:

  • TT&E Services: Inspection, acceptance, and quality assurance.
  • Repair Services: Based on TT&E findings, with "Not To Exceed" pricing and detailed repair quotes.
  • Data Requirements: Comprehensive reporting via Commercial Asset Visibility Air Force (CAVAF), Repairable Item Inspection Reports (RIIR), Counterfeit Prevention Plans (CPP), Engineering Change Proposals (ECP), Government Property Inventory Reports, and Contract Depot Maintenance (CDM) Monthly Production Reports.
  • Compliance: Adherence to specific packaging standards (MIL-STD-2073-1, MIL-STD-129, ISPM 15), Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) control, and Item Unique Identification (IUID) marking per MIL-STD-130 for items valued at $5,000 or more.
  • Transportation: Compliance with detailed shipping instructions and DCMA Transportation procedures.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price (FFP) 'C'-type repair contract.
  • Period of Performance: One year, with an estimated award date of April 22, 2026, and performance/delivery through April 21, 2027.
  • Delivery: Varies by line item, ranging from 30 to 150 days After Receipt of Carcass (ARO) or After Completion of Study/Award.
  • Set-Aside: Other than Full and Open Competition (Sole Source).

Evaluation & Justification

The acquisition is justified as a sole source to Applied Systems Engineering, Inc. due to their exclusive ownership of proprietary technologies and technical data essential for the JTE Transmitters. Market research, including a Sources Sought Synopsis on SAM.gov, yielded zero responses. The estimated cost has been determined fair and reasonable through cost analysis and prior efforts. The government is actively seeking to acquire necessary data rights to enable future competition.

Submission & Contact

Proposals are due by April 16, 2026, at 5:00 PM local time. Submissions must be digital, with email being the preferred method. Offerors are responsible for ensuring successful email delivery and should send a follow-up email without attachments to verify receipt.
