- Description
- SUBJECT: Market research is being conducted to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for qualification and production of various UH-1N and TH-1H components on PR FD2060-18-00122. ITEM DESCRIPTION: These dynamic components are applicable to the USAF UH-1N transmission assembly and the TH-1H flight instrumentation. The TH-1H aircraft is used for the training of helicopter pilots. The USAF UH-1N performs airlift of emergency security forces, security and surveillance of off-base nuclear weapons convoys, and distinguished visitor airlift. Other uses include: disaster response operations, search and rescue, medical evacuation, airborne cable inspections, support to aircrew survival school, aerial testing, routine missile site support and transport. NSN 6620-00-498-7781, Indicator: This is part of the Engine Oil Pressure Indicator System. The indicator displays the engine oil pressure in both engines. The Indicator requires 26.5 Volts AC (Nominal) and 28.0 Volts DC (nominal). NSN 3040-00-950-6840, Housing: This is the outer case for the Accessory and Tail Rotor Transmission Drive and Sump Assembly, which is a secondary gear train in the transmission that drives the tail rotor quill, rotor brake quill, hydraulic pump quills, and other accessory quills. NSN 1615-01-235-7920, Short Shaft Assembly: This part transmits power from the engine freewheeling assembly to the main rotor, tail rotor, and transmission mounted accessories. It accommodates parallel and angular misalignment as well as axial length changes between the two components as the main rotor transmission moves in response to rotor loads. The driveshaft consists of end adapters, flexural elements and connecting shafting as required to mate with the transmission and engine drive adapters and transmit power. Impediment to Competition: The original equipment manufacturer for this item is Bell Helicopter Textron (BHT). The Government does not own any data, drawings, schematics, rights or any other releasable technical data in support of this requirement. As a result, BHT CAGE 97499 is the only known source with adequate knowledge of the above dynamic components and instruments performance requirements and possession of the required technical data and capabilities needed to produce this item and ensure compatibility of the equipment. INTEREST The DLA/AWB Contracting Office intends to award a sole source contract to BHT for the manufacture of the above dynamic components and instrument in support of the UH-1N and TH-1H helicopter program. Other interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement no later than 14 August 2017 to John Edwards via email ( john.edwards.8@us.af.mil ) and (dla.dlr.proc@us.af.mil). The Government intends to procure these items using Other Than Full and Open Competition as prescribed by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
