About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking to procure specialized equipment for B-52 aircraft maintenance at Tinker Air Force Base, specifically requesting two B-52 Shoring Cradles and Trailers, seven Horizontal Stabilizer Supports, and nine Cradle Adapters. The solicitation (FA812525Q0052) will be evaluated based on the lowest total evaluated price from vendors who meet all requirements, with a focus on technical compliance and adherence to specifications. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), have a current NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment, and comply with all terms outlined in the solicitation. The contract will be awarded under FAR Part 12 (Commercial Items) and FAR Part 13 (Simplified Acquisition Procedures), with an estimated award date of 10 April 2025. Potential respondents must submit their quotes by 24 April 2025, ensuring full compliance with the detailed technical requirements specified in the associated drawings and item descriptions.
The solicitation is set aside for Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) concerns within the manufacturing sector, specifically targeting businesses with the NAICS code 332999 and a size standard of 750 employees. The contract has a firm fixed-price arrangement with a delivery schedule of 15 weeks from the date of award, requiring the selected vendor to deliver the equipment directly to Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. While no incumbent contractors are explicitly mentioned, the procurement is part of the B-52 Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) cycle, indicating these components are critical for ongoing aircraft maintenance operations. The technical specifications are precise, including detailed manufacturing requirements such as welding standards (AWS D1.1/D1.1M:2020 for steel and D1.2/D1.2M:2014 for aluminum) and material specifications like using low carbon steel for cradle adapters. Though an amendment was issued on 21 April 2025 indicating a temporary cancellation while awaiting updated requirement documents, the original solicitation remains active.
