About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for solicitation W50S9H26QA039, addressing clarifications on procurement requirements for lifting systems. The document confirms that P/N 9314-010 is the correct part number for the pneumatic lifting air bag station, with a required 15-ton capacity rating. The Government will accept the OEM's current published technical specifications for this component where they differ from figures in the requirements document.
The solicitation contains three CLINs covering different lifting systems. Brand-name restrictions apply only to CLINs 0001 and 0002, while CLIN 0003 (fuselage lifting system) is unrestricted and permits equivalent systems meeting all stated requirements. The Government intends to make one award for all required items but reserves the right to award all, some, or none in its best interest. Technical proposals will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis, with price considered only after acceptability determination. No Small Business Administration Nonmanufacturer Rule waiver has been issued. Government personnel and equipment will be available to unload crated lifting systems at Building 908. If the Government makes multiple awards and the CLIN 0003 contract value does not exceed $200,000, the exception at DFARS 225.7002-2(a) would apply, making DFARS 252.225-7012 (Preference for Certain Domestic Commodities) inapplicable to that contract. The document is current as of September 4, 2026.
