Purchase of RTP and Antenna spares.

The United States Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security, is forecasting the purchase of Return to Service (RTP) and antenna spare parts for its HC-130J aircraft. These components are critical for maintaining operational readiness and ensuring the continued functionality of the aircraft’s communication and navigation systems. The anticipated procurement supports ongoing maintenance and sustainment efforts centered at Elizabeth City, North Carolina, where the aircraft are based and serviced. The North American Industry Classification System code 336413 indicates the contract relates to aerospace product and parts manufacturing, aligning with the specialized nature of the required spares. There is no set-aside designation for small businesses, but a Small Business Specialist, Justin Midgett, is listed as a point of contact to assist interested vendors. Primary points of contact for technical and procurement inquiries are Christopher Vasiles and Thomas Meek, who can be reached via email or phone for further details. Although the solicitation number and posted date are not provided, the forecast indicates future intent to procure, allowing potential contractors to prepare proposals in advance. All correspondence and formal activity will likely be coordinated through the provided DHS portal link.
