About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command at Hill Air Force Base (contracting office FA8213 AFLCMC EBHK) intends to procure Engine Starter Cartridges for USAF AGM-86 Air Launched Cruise Missiles under a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract with a response deadline of July 10, 2026. Qualification by the Job Qualification Requirement (JQR) process is mandatory for technical acceptability and award eligibility.

The procurement is structured as two bidding options. Bid A requires submission of a first article sample, first article test/inspection report, 100 production units (DODIC JM80, NSN 1377015266553, P/N 96744-01), and technical data per DD 1423-1, with delivery 18 months after receipt of order. Bid B eliminates the first article requirement but maintains the 100-unit quantity and delivery timeline; technical data is included without separate pricing in either option.

Place of performance will be determined upon contract award. All responsible sources may submit proposals; foreign-owned firms are permitted at the prime contractor level but must contact the contracting officer before proposal submission to clarify award participation restrictions. The JQR attachment documents the qualification process required for source acceptance.
