About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking to procure two Diesel-Powered Cabin Pressure Testers (CPTs) designed and certified specifically for use on B-1 aircraft. The 76 Aircraft Maintenance Group at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma requires these testers to measure pressure leaks in B-1 aircraft cabins and to replace existing obsolete and unreliable equipment that is causing significant maintenance downtime and operational risks. The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. Prospective contractors must demonstrate their capability through documentation of facility capabilities, staff composition, quality assurance processes, on-time completion rates, and commerciality information. Responses to the Contractor Capability Survey must be submitted via email to Shanita Manuel (shanita.manuel@us.af.mil) or Tony Dollard (anthony.dollard@us.af.mil) no later than February 27, 2026, which is the deadline for this market research phase.
This is a pre-solicitation notice with no set-aside designation, meaning both large and small businesses are eligible to compete, and joint ventures and teaming arrangements are explicitly encouraged. The current equipment being replaced consists of three obsolete units (MT006, MT007, and MT021) that suffer from high downtime and low Mean Time Between Repair rates. No specific contract award value or budget range is disclosed in this sources sought phase, and no security clearance is required for participation. Participation in this market survey does not guarantee inclusion in future solicitations or contract awards, and the government will not reimburse respondents for any expenses incurred during the capability survey process.
