About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Sustainment Center intends to procure two Automated Loop & Joint Tester Kits for the 76th Air Maintenance Group (AMXG) at Tinker Air Force Base. The procurement specifically involves the MK ExLRT Automated Loop & Joint Tester Kit (XLR-9703-01), which is designed for electrical system checks and High-Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) compliance testing on KC-46 aircraft. The contract will require a System for Award Management (SAM) registration, and the procurement is classified under NAICS code 334515 for instrument manufacturing. While detailed evaluation criteria are not explicitly stated, the solicitation indicates a sole source requirement with a strong preference for the specific MK ExLRT model. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on May 16, 2025, with a response deadline of June 1, 2025, and contractors are advised that no quotes will be accepted until the formal Request for Quote (RFQ) is released.
The contract is set aside for total small business participation, with market research identifying three potential vendors: Caprice Electronics, Inc., MK Test Systems Americas Inc., and Westest Engineering Corporation. The procurement will be a firm-fixed price contract with an estimated performance period of 4 weeks after award receipt. Each kit will include multiple components such as measurement clamps, probe sets, rechargeable batteries, chargers, a rugged field deployment case, and supporting documentation like quick-start guides and safety manuals. The total quantity requested is two complete tester kits, with a size standard limitation of 750 employees for eligible contractors. While specific award value details are not provided, the procurement appears focused on acquiring specialized electrical testing equipment for precise aircraft maintenance requirements.
