How to bid on TH-1H AHRS repairs for the Department of the Air Force
What the Air Force is seeking
The Department of the Air Force is conducting a market survey to identify potential sources qualified to repair two attitude-heading gyroscopes used in TH-1H helicopters: NSN 6615-12-372-6798, part number HL 141852-3122, and NSN 6615-12-386-7894, part number HL 145130-7000.
This is a request for information, not a stated repair order. The notice says potential sources need the repair data, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements. The listed repair method code is R3, meaning repair for the second or subsequent time directly from the actual manufacturer; suffix code Z identifies a commercial non-developmental off-the-shelf item.
Deadline and what it means
The notice was published October 15, 2026. The response deadline is November 1, 2026, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time.
Treat that time as the cutoff for sending your market-survey response. Since this is an RFI, the notice describes a source-identification survey, not a stated award or order for repairs.
Who this opportunity may suit
This survey is relevant to firms that repair attitude-heading gyroscopes or similar aircraft equipment and can demonstrate the repair data, capabilities, and experience needed for the stated qualification requirements.
It may be especially relevant to businesses able to address repair directly from the actual manufacturer and the commercial-item information associated with suffix code Z. Review the notice and its attachment to determine whether your firm can support the specific parts.
How to access the notice
Use the portal’s “View original source” option to open the opportunity. If the first click takes you to the portal homepage, click it again to go to the bid.
A free account may be needed to view documents, though some opportunities do not require one. Check the attachment for additional information before preparing your response.
Prepare a clear, relevant response
Address the two NSNs and part numbers separately so readers can see which items your firm can repair. Explain your relevant repair experience and capabilities, and identify the repair data you possess that supports the qualification requirements.
Keep claims specific and supportable. Review the attachment, follow any response instructions it provides, and allow time to submit before the November 1 deadline. Because this is a market survey, focus on clearly describing your firm as a potential source rather than assuming the notice is a request for a repair-price proposal.
