About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base is conducting a Sources Sought Synopsis for F-15 SMDC Initiators, which are specialized explosive devices used in military equipment. This market research effort aims to determine potential sources and assess the competitiveness of the procurement, with a specific focus on identifying responsible small business contractors. The government is seeking companies with experience in engineering, manufacturing, inspection, and testing of similar explosive components within the past three years. Interested parties are requested to provide a detailed company profile including employee count, office location, CAGE code, DUNS number, and small business designation. Respondents must submit their information by May 29, 2025, with all submissions serving to help the Air Force develop its acquisition strategy.
The synopsis indicates no specific set-aside has been predetermined, though the government is interested in 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Hubzone, and Women-Owned small business concerns. Two current manufacturers with existing capability, Chemring Energetic Devices Inc and Pacific Scientific Energetics Materials Company, are noted as having current design rights. The procurement involves 138 "Initiator, SMDC to Gas" and 103 "Initiator, SMDC" units, classified under NAICS code 325920 (Explosives Manufacturing) with a size standard of 750 employees. No reimbursement will be provided for response preparation, and potential contractors must possess appropriate data access. Interested firms can direct questions to Roger Mott at 801-558-3802 or roger.mott@us.af.mil for further clarification about the opportunity.
