About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command, specifically the 366 Contracting Squadron at Mountain Home AFB, is conducting a sources sought announcement for a pneumatic aircraft tire bead breaker for the Crash Recovery Section. The procurement seeks a specialized piece of equipment capable of breaking aircraft tires with a 25,000 lbs breaking capacity, compatible with wheel rims between 12.5" and 32.5" inches, and capable of handling tires up to 28" wide. The government anticipates a 30-day delivery period after contract award and requires the contractor to provide installation, onsite training, and technical support. Interested vendors must respond with company information including SAM UEI, Cage Code, and small business status by March 12, 2025. The market research is specifically evaluating potential small business set-aside opportunities under NAICS code 336413, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees.
The sources sought announcement is designated as a total small business set-aside, indicating potential preferential treatment for small business contractors. While no specific award value is currently disclosed, the procurement involves a single pneumatic bead breaker to be delivered to 865 Alpine St Suite 105 at Mountain Home AFB, Idaho. The equipment must include a comprehensive 1-year warranty covering both components and labor, and the contractor will be responsible for equipment installation and comprehensive training of government personnel. The government anticipates issuing a combined Synopsis/Solicitation if market research supports proceeding with the procurement, though this announcement does not constitute a commitment to issue a solicitation or award a contract. Contractors will need to demonstrate capability to meet precise technical specifications, including hydraulic drive motor, pneumatic power supply, and adjustable fork configurations.
