About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is seeking potential sources for re-manufacturing critical aircraft components for USAF and Foreign Military Sales aircraft. Specific components include Mode Selectors, three types of AND Gates, Cabin Decompression Sensors, and Internal Canopy Jettison Initiators used on B-1 and F-15 aircraft. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 325920 for Explosives Manufacturing with a size standard of 750 employees. Interested parties must demonstrate relevant experience in engineering, manufacturing, remanufacturing, inspection, and testing of similar egress components within the last 3 years. The government is evaluating potential small business set-aside opportunities and seeking to identify qualified sources through this Sources Sought Synopsis, with responses due by 5:00 p.m. on January 31, 2025.
Currently, Chemring Energetic Devices (CAGE Code: 93455) is the only known provider of these specialized components. The government does not own technical data rights and will not fund second source qualification efforts, which may present a challenge for potential new entrants to the market. While specific award values are not disclosed, the synopsis suggests this is a critical procurement for maintaining aircraft safety systems. The opportunity potentially includes small business set-aside designations for 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned small businesses. The specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for the components range from 1377-01-237-4417ES to 1377-01-166-4266ES, indicating a precise and technical procurement process focused on highly specialized aircraft safety and egress components.
