Revision 3

1. APPLICATION

1.1. This RQR applies to CSI and CAI with a Repair Method Suffix Code (RMSC) of C, D, K, M, N, P, Q, R, S, V, and Z within the Propulsion Sustainment Division. This RQR does not apply to items with an RMSC of G, A, B, H, L, U, and Y. Codes as defined in DFARS PGI 217.75 ACQUISITION OF REPLENISHMENT PARTS.
1.2. This RQR establishes technical requirements, which Potential Sources (PS) must satisfy in order to obtain Engineering Support Activity (ESA) approval to repair propulsion items for the specific applications. This RQR may have two phases, depending on ESA determination. The first phase is SAR submittal and evaluation; the second phase is the Source Demonstration (SD) and evaluation.

2. SCOPE

2.1. The PS should have a valid Company Profile on record with the ESA in order to gain source approval status. If one does not exist the PS must submit one. Company Profile requirements are described in section 7.
2.2. In order to gain source approval status, the PS must submit a SAR. The SAR requirements are described in section 8.
2.3. The Company Profile and SAR will be reviewed by the ESA and the PS will either be made an approved source, or denied source approval. Source Demonstration (SD) may be required for qualification approval. See section 10. 2.4. Source approval status expires after three (3) years for CSI, and seven (7) years for CAI. Sources that deliver parts on government contract, maintain source approval status. See section 12.
2.5. Approved sources shall submit a Source Resubstantiation Request (SRR) prior to expiration of the current approval period (recommended 90 days) in order to renew the approval status duration. See section 13.
2.6. Any time a change to the SAR documentation occurs, the approved source must submit a Process Change Request (PCR) for review by the ESA. See section 14. 2.7. The ESA may revoke the approval status of a PS at any time per FAR 9.207.

3. SUBMITTAL CONSIDERATION

3.1. The PS should consider submitting a SAR for evaluation after determining that the USAF may potentially have need of the subject item. This can be done by considering the following:
