About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is soliciting proposals for the remanufacture of C-17 aircraft arm fire initiators, critical safety components used in emergency egress systems. The procurement involves two line items: 34 electrical arm fire initiators (NSN 1377-01-382-0650) and 150 internal arm fire initiators (NSN 1377-01-382-0670), which must be restored to serviceable condition through comprehensive disassembly, inspection, testing, and component replacement. Contractors must be fully qualified vendors with ISO 9001:2015 quality certification and demonstrate technical capabilities through a mandatory qualification process that can take up to 360 days and cost between $5,000 to $50,000. The government will evaluate proposals using a best value tradeoff approach, with technical factors significantly more important than price, considering vendor qualification, detailed project schedules with Work Breakdown Structure, and cost reasonableness. The original solicitation was issued on July 7, 2025, with an extended proposal due date of August 13, 2025, following an amendment on August 7, 2025.
This firm-fixed-price procurement is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 325920 (Explosives Manufacturing) with a size standard of 750 employees, though specific contract values are not disclosed in the available documentation. Two qualified manufacturers are identified as potential sources: Pacific Scientific Energetic Materials Company (CAGE 06331) and Chemring Energetic Devices (CAGE 93455), with only United States and Canadian suppliers being considered for qualification. The contractor must complete delivery by March 31, 2027, and will work with government-furnished property requiring restoration to meet or exceed original component specifications, with energetic materials limited to 24 months from original manufacturing date. Performance will occur at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, with the contractor responsible for comprehensive documentation including Ammunition Data Cards, obsolescence alerts, and detailed reporting throughout the contract period.
