About this opportunity

The United States Coast Guard is conducting market research to identify potential sources for Aircraft Latch Hook components, which fall under the commercial hardware category (PSC 5340) and aircraft parts manufacturing (NAICS 336413). This pre-solicitation notice is strictly informational in nature and does not constitute a formal solicitation, request for proposal, or binding commitment to award a contract. The government is seeking responses from firms capable of supplying the specified aircraft latch hook (National Stock Number 5340-01-564-5512, Part Number 91464-101) and requires respondents to provide company information, contact details, and answers to a comprehensive questionnaire. Interested vendors must address questions regarding OEM authorization status, pricing including quantity discounts, production lead times, business classification, employee count, and certifications including small business, disadvantaged business, Hub Zone, woman-owned business, and service-disabled veteran status. The deadline for submitting responses to this sources sought notice is March 5, 2026, providing interested parties approximately two and one-half weeks to prepare and submit their information.

This sources sought notice carries no set-aside designation and represents pure market research rather than a procurement action. The identified current sources include Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Cage Code 78286) and Avibank Manufacturing (Cage Code 84256), both of which are recognized OEM or approved sources for this component. No contract award value, budget range, or specific quantity requirements are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as the Coast Guard is using this market research phase to assess supplier availability and capabilities before determining procurement strategy. Respondents should understand that participation in this sources sought notice does not guarantee consideration for any subsequent contract award and is solely intended to inform the government's sourcing decisions and planning processes.
