GE InspectionTechnologies is the only manufacture of these components. NASA Dryden already uses aboroscope purchased from the vendor, therefore compatibility issues would arise if otherequipment was used. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform theeffort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local timeon April 27, 2008.
