About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is issuing a pre-solicitation notice for the production of BBU-48 A/B Impulse Cartridges under Solicitation FA8213-24-R-B012. This is a limited competition restricted to qualified sources, and a qualification package is required for new vendors. The government is requesting feedback and comments on the draft solicitation from approved vendors. The evaluation criteria include being a qualified source, submitting a manufacturing plan, and pricing. The government intends to award contracts to successful offerors through a split-award, but reserves the right to award no contract or a winner-take-all approach, depending on the proposals received. The due date for responses to this pre-solicitation is September 18, 2024.
The procurement is set aside for small businesses. The current qualified sources are Valor Tactical (Cage Code: 04099) and Decryptor (Cage Code: 98K83). The government anticipates using both U.S. Government and Foreign Military Sales funds for the buy-to-quantity procurement, with a total quantity to be determined. The government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred by vendors in responding to this pre-solicitation notice.
