About this file
This is a Sources Sought Synopsis issued by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command (AFLCMC/EBHKB) to conduct market research for the procurement of F-15 Aerial Refueling Receptacle cartridge components and cartridge-actuated thrusters. The government seeks to identify responsible sources and determine whether the requirement can be competitively awarded or established as a total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 325920 (pharmaceutical preparation manufacturing, size standard 750 employees). The government is particularly interested in responses from small business concerns, including 8(a) firms, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses, HUBZone, and Women-Owned small businesses. Two specific line items are required: National Stock Number 1377-00-313-4761ES (Thruster, Cartridge Actuated) and 1377-00-261-5371ES (Aerial Refueling Receptacle Cartridge). Responses must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. on April 3, 2026.
Interested parties must provide relevant experience performing engineering, manufacturing, remanufacturing, inspection, and testing of similar egress components within the past three years, along with company profile information including employee count, office locations, CAGE Code, DUNS Number, and small business designation status. The government will not provide reimbursement for response costs or fund second source qualification efforts. Offerors must independently possess access to all appropriate technical data; the government does not own or control the data required to manufacture these components. This Sources Sought is for planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation. The government will use responses to determine the optimal acquisition strategy for this procurement.
