The Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), on behalf of the Enterprise Soldier Aviation (ESA), intends to repair these Part NSNs: 5895-01-577-5425 (ISDC, with Part number: MB503A-00); 5895—01-589-3638 (Night Flat Panel); 5895-01-589-3636 (Day Flat panel), Display Unit: ( NSN: 7025-01-362-0980); Converter Signal Data: (NSN: 5895-01-459-3050); Converter Signal Data: (NSN: 5895-01-459-3051); Circuit Card Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7465); Circuit Card Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7481); Circuit Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7470; and Transformer, Power: (NSN: 5950-01-370-4022) to support the weapon systems. This is a Sources Sought/Request for Information for the potential requirement described below. Requirements Description: This is a market survey to locate potential sources of repair of AN/AVS-7 (10) B with NSN: 5895-01-577-5425, HUD assemblies and subassemblies (flat panel, NSN: 5895-01-589-3636 and NSN: 5895-01-589-3636); Display Unit: ( NSN: 7025-01-362-0980); Converter Signal Data: (NSN: 5895-01-459-3050); Converter Signal Data: (NSN: 5895-01-459-3051); Circuit Card Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7465); Circuit Card Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7481); Circuit Assembly: (NSN: 5998-01-470-7470; and Transformer, Power: (NSN: 5950-01-370-4022). The HUD facilitates helicopter pilots to use the Aviator’s Night Vision Imaging System (ANVIS) goggles during flight operations. The HUD supplies critical operational information to the pilot superimposed over the ANVIS image. The HUD diminishes the requirement for the pilot and co-pilot to look at the flight instruments, thus allowing them to concentrate on scanning outside of the cockpit. The Government does not possess the technical data package (TDP), detailed drawings and performance specifications for these items. This is not a developmental effort. Current designs have been approved by Product Manager – Air Warrior (PM- Air Warrior). Alternate designs must be approved by PM-Air Warrior. The following additional NAICS apply: 336413 The Government requires the following NSNs: Improved Signal Data Converter; (NSN: 5895-01-577-5425) Day Flat Panel; (NSN: 5895-01-589-3636) Night Flat Panel; (NSN: 5895-01-589-3638) Display Unit; ( NSN: 7025-01-362-0980) Converter Signal Data; (NSN: 5895-01-459-3050) Converter Signal Data; (NSN: 5895-01-459-3051) Circuit Card Assembly; (NSN: 5998-01-470-7465) Circuit Card Assembly; (NSN: 5998-01-470-7481) Circuit Assembly; (NSN: 5998-01-470-7470) Transformer, Power; (NSN: 5950-01-370-4022) Military Night and Day Aviator’s Night Vision Imaging System (ANVIS) are considered defense unique technology due to the high quality and performance requirements and are covered by International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and export contol regulations.
