About this file

This is a Sources Sought Synopsis issued by the Department of the Air Force's Air Force Sustainment Center, seeking market research on potential manufacturers for various aerospace components. The document covers multiple aircraft parts including housings, brakes, valves, stator tubes, heat stack assemblies, and heat shields for aircraft platforms like T-37, F-16, B-2, A-10, and B-1B. The government anticipates obtaining a "CLASS" Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition to authorize five years of sole source contract actions with Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems (cage code 0B9R9).

The synopsis requests interested parties to respond and demonstrate their ability to obtain proprietary manufacturing data for these parts. The proposed North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 336413 with a size standard of 1,250 employees, and the government is open to both small and large business concerns. The contract type is Supply with a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) arrangement, and the government plans to issue multiple contract actions through DLA Basic Ordering Agreements, enterprise/strategic IDIQ contracts, or standalone contract actions. Responses are due by December 1, 2025, at 4:30 PM MST.
