About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for F-15 aircraft initiators and initiator cartridges. The procurement targets multiple National Stock Number items, including external canopy jettison initiators with various delay specifications, under NAICS code 325920 for Explosives Manufacturing. The government is seeking companies with demonstrated capabilities in engineering, manufacturing, inspection, and testing of explosive items, with a focus on small business participation. Technical data rights are currently held by Rockwell Collins Inc and Chemring Energetic Devices Inc, and the government does not possess existing manufacturing data. Interested parties are required to submit detailed company profiles and potential teaming arrangements by May 14, 2025, with questions directed to Sharon Davis at (801) 586-0929 or sharon.davis.16@us.af.mil.
The solicitation is not designated with a specific small business set-aside, though it shows a strong preference for small business categories including 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Hubzone, and Women-Owned small businesses. The size standard for potential contractors is set at 750 employees within the specified NAICS code. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the procurement appears focused on comprehensive manufacturing capabilities for critical F-15 aircraft components. The market research phase suggests the government is exploring potential sources and manufacturing capabilities before proceeding to a full solicitation. The scope of procurement indicates a need for sophisticated explosive device manufacturing expertise, with potential for multiple contractors to be evaluated based on their technical capabilities and manufacturing readiness.
