Things to watch (6)
From the version posted Oct 19, 2026.
- Worth checking: Repair turnaround of 110 days after receipt. Prices are based on meeting the 110-day RTAT; if you miss it, the Government says the consequence is a price adjustment to be negotiated, so check your repair shop's real turnaround before quoting.
- Worth checking: No evaluation factors or submission method in the text read. Section M (evaluation factors) is empty and Section L lists only clause references, so how quotes are scored and where to send them is not stated; ask the contracting office.
- Worth checking: CAV reporting portal costs go in your price. You must register for the CAV repairables portal (a PKI certificate, training and an access request) and fold its cost into the quote.

- Minor: Throughput constraint must be stated. You have to tell the Navy how many units per month you can repair, which sets how fast you can take in assets.
- Minor: Government-furnished unit must match exactly. Do not start work if the unit you receive differs in NSN or part number from the order, and contact the contracting officer if it has not arrived within 45 days of the order date.
- Minor: Mercury-free requirement. Mercury contamination is cause for rejection, and the rule must be passed to subcontractors.
