About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting market research to identify potential sources for the manufacture of Duct Assembly, Bleed components (NSN 1560-00-728-9480). This pre-solicitation notice seeks information from parties with the resources and capability to support full manufacturing operations, including component procurement, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, and shipping. Prospective contractors must demonstrate capability to manage supply chain operations, logistics planning, production forecasting, long-lead time procurement, and address diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortages. The government will evaluate submissions based on market capacity to provide consistent in-scope services, secure adequate corporate financial and human capital resources, and implement successful project management with compliance to program requirements. The response deadline for this market research inquiry is November 10, 2025, and interested parties are advised that this is a pre-solicitation notice only—no solicitation is currently active, and submission of capability information is entirely voluntary with no financial obligation to the government.
This market research initiative carries no set-aside designation and represents future procurement planning rather than an immediate buy. Arrowhead Products Corp. (CAGE 70628) currently manufactures this item under part number 712600-59, though technical orders and qualification requirements are not yet available. The estimated annual procurement volume is 80 units, establishing the scale of potential future requirements. The applicable NAICS code is 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), and the PSC category is 1560 (Airframe Structural Components). This notice is specifically intended to identify and pre-qualify vendors for competition on the next buy cycle, allowing interested manufacturers time to prepare capability statements and qualifications prior to formal solicitation.
