About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is seeking to procure multiple types of aircraft ejection system security cutters for Foreign Military Sales (FMS) countries. The pre-solicitation synopsis (FA8213-25-Q-3002) covers three primary product lines: Reefing Line Cutters (P/N: C1-1.15), Locking Cord Cutters (P/N: C1-4.0), and Cutter Actuated Cartridges (P/N: H1-0.25). These mechanically actuated miniature initiators and ballistic devices are specialized components used in aircraft life support systems, predominantly made of aluminum and steel with explosive charges. The solicitation will be processed electronically, with Roberts Research Laboratory in Torrance, CA identified as the recipient. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, the contract appears to be focused on precise technical specifications and manufacturing capabilities within the explosives manufacturing sector.
The contract opportunity is not set aside for any specific small business category and is open to qualified manufacturers. The total quantity of items varies across multiple sub-line items, ranging from 2 to 96 units per line item, with a total of 84 Cutter Actuated Cartridges specified for delivery to Hill Air Force Base in Utah. The delivery timeline is set at 18 months after contract receipt, and the procurement falls under NAICS category 325920 (Explosives Manufacturing) and PSC category 1377 (Cartridge and Propellant Actuated Devices and Components). While no specific award value is mentioned, the complexity and specialized nature of the components suggest a potentially significant contract value. The posted date is May 29, 2025, with a response due date of June 13, 2025, indicating a relatively short window for potential contractors to prepare and submit their proposals.
