Prior to the public/private competition program, most depot-level maintenance for the Navys first line aircraft was automatically assigned to the Navy depots. The depots were paid a budgeted price for each airframe overhaul based on labor standards and past experience. Under the competition program, the price to perform selected overhauls is determined by the market forces of open competition by allowing private contractors to bid against the depots. The depots won the F-14 competition because their bid was considered to offer the best value to the government. Between fiscal years 1989 and 1991, the depots completed 128 F-14 overhauls at a cost of $171 million, of which 36 were competed and 92 were not. Detailed cost information was available on the first 24 competed overhauls. To ensure that the depots would retain a core overhaul capability for support of military contingencies, not all overhauls were included in the F-14 competition program.
