The U.S. Air Force is seeking capable sources to repair or remanufacture a KC-135 rudder trim gearbox assembly.

- **OEMs and vendors:** No manufacturer, OEM, repair vendor, or other commercial source is identified by name. CAGE 81205 is provided, but no company name is given.

The contractor must also support logistics and supply-chain management, parts forecasting and procurement, long-lead parts, reparable forecasting, and obsolescence management.

Pre-approval is required due to item complexity, and a repair data list (RDL) is required for solicitation. A Source Approval Request may be needed for potential sources.
- **Pricing information:** One worksheet reports a forecast unit price of $9,358.50, a latest repair cost of $1,040, and an annual repair budget value of $87,360. The documents do not establish a firm contract value; the figures reflect differing repair and quantity bases.
