About this opportunity
The Air Force Sustainment Center is conducting market research through a Sources Sought synopsis to identify potential manufacturers of butterfly valves for the KC-135 platform, with responses due by August 13, 2026. This effort will determine whether the acquisition can be conducted competitively or as a Small Business Set-Aside; the Government may break the requirement out by airframe. No solicitation is currently available, and this is market research only with no funds allocated or contractual commitment intended.
The Government seeks sources capable of manufacturing part number 458-50005-1 (NSN 4810-01-146-0722YQ) with estimated spares requirements between 10 and 56 units.

Potential manufacturers must possess new-manufacture capabilities including component procurement, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, shipping, supply chain management, logistics planning, forecasting, and long-lead parts procurement, as well as ability to address diminishing manufacturing sources. Unit prices will be established at contract award.

The Government welcomes all business types: large business, small business, small disadvantaged businesses, 8(a) firms, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, HUBZone businesses, and women-owned small businesses.
