Air Launched Cruise Missile Air Supply Initiators

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is conducting market research to identify potential sources for Air Launched Cruise Missile Air Supply Initiators, specifically for Part Number 103377-29. The sources sought synopsis is designed to gather information from potential contractors about their capabilities in engineering, manufacturing, remanufacturing, inspection, and testing of similar egress components. Interested companies are required to submit detailed company profiles, including employee count, location, CAGE Code, DUNS Number, and small business status. The government seeks to determine the most appropriate acquisition strategy and will evaluate responses based on companies' relevant experience in the past three years. The deadline for submitting responses is March 28, 2025, with the pre-solicitation notice posted on March 12, 2025.

The procurement opportunity is not currently set aside for any specific small business category, though the synopsis indicates interest in 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Hubzone, and Women-Owned small business concerns under NAICS code 325920 with a size standard of 750 employees. No specific award value or budget range is mentioned in the documents, and the government will not provide reimbursement for response information. The synopsis does not identify any incumbent contractors or specify the exact quantity of air supply initiators to be procured. While the government does not currently own manufacturing rights or data for these components, the market research aims to explore potential competitive procurement strategies. Potential contractors are also encouraged to discuss possible teaming arrangements in their responses.
