About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for a vaneaxial fan (NSN: 4140-01-311-6901, Part Number: 145DS518-6) used in the CH-47 CHINOOK weapon system. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333413 with a size standard of 500 employees, and is currently being pursued under Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(a)(1) due to limited sources and complex technical data rights. Interested contractors must meet prequalification requirements and demonstrate capability to perform comprehensive manufacturing and engineering services. Potential suppliers are encouraged to seek source approval by emailing usarmy.redstone.devcom-avmc.mbx.amr-ss-sar@army.mil, with a response deadline of February 12, 2025. The agency is seeking contractors who can manage all aspects of the manufacturing process, including supply chain management, logistics, parts forecasting, and addressing potential obsolescence issues.

While no specific set-aside is currently designated, the DLA welcomes responses from diverse business categories, including 8(a), small business, small disadvantaged business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned small business concerns. The solicitation (SPRRA1-25-R-0032) does not specify a precise award value or contract duration, and no incumbent contractor is mentioned in the documentation. The government has determined that reverse engineering the part is uneconomical, and the technical data rights cannot be purchased or developed independently. Contractors will be responsible for recurring and non-recurring engineering services associated with becoming a qualified source, with the ultimate goal of competing for future solicitations. No specific quantity of fans is outlined in the pre-solicitation notice, and the current document serves primarily as a market research tool to identify potential manufacturing sources for this specialized component.
