Who can bid
- Hold the repair data, capabilities and experience needed to meet the Government's qualification requirements to repair these parts
Things to watch
From the version posted Oct 15, 2026.
- Worth checking: Qualification requirements apply. The Government is looking for sources that already meet qualification requirements for repairing these parts, so a business without the repair data or experience may not qualify.
- Worth checking: Repair method code R3: repair from the manufacturer. Repair method code R3 means repair for the second or subsequent time directly from the actual manufacturer, which may limit who can do the work.
