- Description
- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, has a requirement for the repair and/or modification for 22 various analog/RF components used to support the Second Generation Vortac (2GVORTAC) System. These components were manufactured by International Telephone and Telegraph (ITT) of Clifton, New Jersey. These components are an integral part of the Air Traffic Control System or Air Navigation Systems and are critical to the operation of the 2GVORTAC Distance Measuring Equipment/Tactical Air Navigation (DME/TACAN). These systems are utilized to maintain operational capability of the national Air Space System, and are crucial to ensure a high level of safety for the flying public. NSN, part numbers, and estimated annual quantities are as follows: Estimated Annual Item NSN Part Number Quantity Estimated Annual Item NSN Part Number Quantity/Each 50 Volt Regulator DME, CCA 5998-01-211-2858 2800008G004 25 50 Volt Regulator TACAN, CCA 5998-01-234-4969 2800008G003 190 Amplifier 5825-01-259-0230 2800027G001 18 Amplifier 5895-01-306-4430 2800112G001 95 Analog CCA 5998-01-217-7149 2800081G001 250 Backplane, Monitor 5999-01-181-2106 2800031G001 4 Backplane, Transponder 5999-01-181-2105 2800029G001 4 Controller Module CCA 5825-01-234-8564 2800110G002 150 CPU CCA 5998-01-213-3932 2800080G001 250 Detector 5895-01-229-1887 2800066G001 70 Detector 5895-01-229-1888 2800064G001 60 Divider-Combiner 5825-01-255-3644 2800022G001 25 Exciter 5825-01-219-5492 2800051G001 70 Extender Board 5998-01-219-5491 2800068G001 4 Generator 5998-01-306-4446 2800061G001 150 Inverter-Rectifier, CCA, DME 5998-01-226-2301 2800214G001 25 Inverter-Rectifier, CCA, TACAN 5998-01-219-7872 2800213G001 150 Power Amplifier 5825-01-235-2906 2800023G001 25 Power Amplifier 5998-! 01-254-9601 2800015G001 412 Receiver 5825-01-306-4429 2800055G001 50 Regulator 6110-01-199-6055 2800060G001 4 Synthesizer 5841-01-302-3200 2800049G001 325 Repairs and/or modifications will be made in accordance with original manufacturer's specifications, FAA Logistics Center Standard, FAAD-STD-1293c, Servicing Standards and Test Requirements for Ground Electronic Equipment, dated February 10, 1998, AFP 6820.6, Navigational Aids Facilities and Equipment, and TI 6820.2, "VORTAC, VOR/DME, VOR Equipment, Type FA-9996", portions of which apply. The referenced documents and the technical data packages for each line replacement units (LRU) are available on CD ROM by requesting a copy from the Contracting Officer. The contractor will be required to complete a card (affixed to each repaired unit) showing NSN, Noun, Part Number, Date Repaired, Serial Number, Contractor's Name, Contract Number, and Delivery Order Number. International Repair Services, Inc. (IRS), Palmdale, CA, current repair source, and Data Processing Equipment Reconditioning Corp. have been previously qualified to repair these analog/RF components; therefore, they are not required to submit documentation evidencing their capabilities. The intent of this announcement is to permit companies that may possess the technical capabilities to repair and/or modify these analog/RF components an opportunity to provide specific information as to their unique capabilities. Interested offerors are invited to submit documentation evidencing the possession of the following capabilities: 1. Experience involving the manufacture, repair, modification and testing of similar analog/RF components, i.e., similar in size, complexity, application, etc.; 2. Possession of or ability to acquire manufacturing, repair and special test equipment and documentation required to accommodate repair and/or modification and testing to verify performance of these analog/RF components; 3. Ability to manufacture or locate and acquire associated parts including out of production components for repair and/or modification, components and assemblies unique or critical to analog/RF components; 4. Ability to repair and/or modify analog/RF components and test to verify performance of this configuration within fifteen (15) workdays after receipt of the unit for priorities, if applicable and thirty (30) workdays after receipt of the unit(s) for routine requirements; 5. Ability to repair and/or modify analog/RF components of this configuration and test to verify performance at the estimated rate adequate to satisfy estimated annual quantity requirements. 6. Ability to provide a warranty for the repair and/or modification of analog/RF components; and 7. ISO 9001 Registered or, as a minimum, have a Quality Control Program in compliance with ANSI/ASQC Q9002-1994. * Capabilities/qualifications may be demonstrated/documented as follows: Ref. No. 1: Provide specific references (e.g., company, points of contact, telephone numbers, contract/order numbers, etc.) of customers for which similar analog/RF components were repaired and/or modified. The submission must specifically identify the similarities of the analog/RF components. Ref.
