Who can bid
- Be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) and keep representations and certifications current.
- Repair facility and repair manuals must be identified and approved: changes to repair manuals, drawings or the repair source or facility need the Procuring Contracting Officer's written approval before they are made.
Things to watch (8)
From the version posted Oct 14, 2026.
- Serious: Agreement is written for one named company. The solicitation says the BOA is with Axillon Aerospace (Rockmart), LLC and sends all repair items to its plant, so another business may have to show it can take over the work; the part of the text read does not say why one company is named or what other firms may send.
- Worth checking: Orders can be unpriced and priced later. For ceiling-priced orders you must send a firm-fixed-price proposal within 30 days of receiving the parts; this 'definitization' (turning the ceiling price into a firm price) can require cost or pricing data and is a material part of the contract.
- Worth checking: Extra cost or pricing data if only one offer arrives. If the Contracting Officer says only one offer was received, the offeror agrees to submit more cost or pricing data, certified if the buy is over the threshold, so be ready to show how the prices were built.

- Worth checking: Fixed repair turnaround times. Each item has a repair turnaround time (RTAT) of 15 to 62 days counted from physical receipt at the plant, so shop capacity and parts supply must be lined up before quoting.
- Worth checking: Government asset-tracking system registration and reporting. The contractor must buy a commercial PKI certificate, finish training and keep a CAV RP account active (logging in at least every 30 days); the cost must be built into prices.
- Minor: Transactions must be reported within five business days. Missing the CAV reporting deadlines for receipts, condition changes and shipments is a compliance failure under the agreement.
- Minor: Contractor provides its own special tooling and test equipment. The Government does not furnish fixtures, jigs, dies or special test equipment unless an attachment says so, so tooling cost belongs in your prices.
- Minor: Rated order under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System. The solicitation states it is a rated order under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS, 15 CFR 700); the text read does not say what the rating requires of the contractor.
