About this opportunity
The Air Force Sustainment Center, an organization within the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command, is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for two specific A-10 aircraft brake components: a disc brake stator (Part Number 5002515) and a disc brake rotor (Part Number 5003657). The government seeks suppliers capable of obtaining proprietary manufacturing data for these limited-source competition parts and is interested in receiving responses from both small and large business concerns. The procurement will be conducted under NAICS Code 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,250 employees and will utilize contract vehicles such as Basic Ordering Agreements or IDIQ contracts with Firm-Fixed-Price arrangements. The government does not currently own the technical data rights for these components and has determined it uneconomical to purchase such rights or pursue reverse engineering. Interested parties must submit their responses by December 1, 2025, at 4:30 PM MST, demonstrating their ability to obtain and work with the proprietary manufacturing data required for production.
This pre-solicitation notice indicates no set-aside designations are being used for this procurement. The government anticipates issuing a Justification and Approval (J&A) for limited source competition focused on Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems and Aircraft Wheels and Brakes, LLC, suggesting these entities are the current or anticipated primary suppliers for the next five years. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the sources sought notice, as this market research document does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to procurement. The notice emphasizes that responses received are intended for market research purposes only and will inform the government's strategic sourcing decisions regarding these critical A-10 landing gear brake components.
