About this opportunity
The Air Force Test Center at Edwards Air Force Base seeks Glenair brand-name swing-arm strain reliefs and electroless nickel connectors to support flight test ground requirements for the 420th Combined Test Force, with quotes due July 17. The procurement is a Total Small Business Set-Aside and is restricted exclusively to Glenair brand products; quotes for substitute or alternate brands are technically unacceptable and will not be evaluated.
Place of performance is Edwards AFB, California. Quoters must be authorized Glenair distributors. The requirement includes nine line items: Glenair swing-arm strain relief clamps (25 units of model 319H180XMT25), composite swing-arm strain reliefs (10 units each of models 627H122XO09, 627H122XO11, 627H122XO13, 627H122XO15, 627H122XO21, and 25 units of 627H122XO25), and electroless nickel plug connectors—pin contact (100 units of model 2570-2005RME08-07PN) and socket contact (100 units of model 2570-2005PME08-07SN). The NAICS code is 334417, Electronic Connector Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees; PSC is 5935, Connectors, Electrical. Delivery is required 60 days after receipt of order, FOB Destination. The single source justification determined that only Glenair products meet the exact form, fit, and function compatibility required with pre-installed sensor wiring and existing interfaces in current flight test production builds; substitutions would require complete redesign and rework of electrical and mechanical schematics, creating unacceptable costs, delays, and safety risks. The Government identified three authorized small business distributors through market research to maximize competition within the Glenair constraint. The contract will be firm-fixed-price, awarded to the responsible vendor meeting these specifications.
