REPAIR -- PILOT WARNING ALARM SET

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial products or commercial services prepared in accordance with the format in subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested, and a written solicitation will not be issued.

This USAF requirement is to obtain repair services for the Pilot Warning Alarm Set (NSN 6340-01-153-8073, PN 205-074-033-103) in support of the TH-1H helicopter. This aircraft is a training platform stationed at Fort Novosel, AL. The fleet size is 27. This contract will return the entire spares inventory of 12EA units to serviceable condition over a one-year period of performance (PoP) with an anticipated award by 30 Sep 25. The Pilot Warning Alarm Set is a revolutions-per-minute (RPM) warning detector, operating on DC power, that senses and interprets rotor and engine RPMs through a connection to tachometer circuits. If the rotor RPM exceeds normal limit, an “RPM WARN” message will be displayed on the center Multi-Function Display (MFD). An audio signal is also produced in the pilot and co-pilot headsets when either the rotor or engine RPM reaches the low limit. It is a commercial item that shall never deviate from the original Form, Fit and Function requirements chosen by the Department of Defense (DoD) for the TH-1H aircraft. Only this specific Pilot Warning Alarm Set will support the current configuration of the TH-1H.
