About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force, Air Force Sustainment Center, is conducting market research to identify sources capable of qualifying and producing the A27-031 Bomb Bay Door Trailers for USAF use, with capability survey responses due December 4, 2026. The notice carries no set-aside (marked "No Set-Aside Used"), and both large and small businesses are encouraged to respond, with joint ventures and teaming arrangements permitted.
The attached Sources Sought Revised synopsis describes nine trailers: six Long trailers (part X201846369-10) and three Short trailers (part X201846369-30). All trailers must be fully assembled to the technical drawings and include protective cradles/guards, casters, tow-bar assemblies, hardware, finish, identification markings, and safety stenciling. Welding must comply with AWS D1.1/D1.2, and each trailer must pass inspection for completeness and drawing compliance before delivery.
Drawings X201846369-10 and -30 are Controlled Unclassified Information with Distribution C (Export Controlled) restrictions and are limited to U.S. and Canadian contractors certified under the Joint Certification Program. Vendors request access by emailing Program Manager Paul Mullins at paul.mullins.2@us.af.mil with an active DD Form 2345 and CAGE Code. Approved drawings transfer via DoD SAFE only; standard email transmission is prohibited.
Capability survey responses are submitted by email only and address business information, similar past experience, quality assurance, technical data generation, manufacturing tooling, facilities and equipment, and commercial item information, including catalog pricing and warranty terms. The government will not reimburse survey expenses, and participation does not ensure consideration for future solicitations or awards.
