This is a qualification requirement for becoming an approved repair source for a specific AIBU component used on the F-16 aircraft. The estimated cost for a potential bidder to complete the required testing and evaluation is $23,300, and the qualification process is estimated to take 180 days to complete. To qualify, an offeror must demonstrate extensive facilities, data, and repair process compliance, and must provide a qualification article for government evaluation at their own expense. The notice outlines specific waiver criteria that may allow a source to bypass some or all of these qualification requirements.
