Hill Industry Day Quad Charts

The Department of the Air Force is seeking vendors to participate in Hill Industry Day for the procurement of aircraft components and related services across multiple Air Force bases, including Hill, Robins, and Tinker AFB. The procurement encompasses alternate sourcing, repair, market research, and reverse engineering requirements for critical components used in aircraft systems including the C-5 Galaxy, F-16 Fighting Falcon, T-38 Talon, B-1 Lancer, and B-52 Bomber. Key objectives include addressing component obsolescence, maintaining operational readiness, and identifying sustainable alternative manufacturing sources to prevent equipment grounding or operational limitations. Vendors are expected to submit capabilities statements, white papers, or source approval request (SAR) packages demonstrating their technical capabilities and capacity to support these efforts. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on December 5, 2025, with a due date of January 16, 2027, allowing interested parties an extended period to prepare comprehensive proposals and responses.

This opportunity utilizes no set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors. Specific component opportunities identified in the quad chart presentations include notable procurement values such as NLG Outer Cylinder repair for C-5 at Hill AFB with a forecasted buy price of $105,166.05 and repair cost of $34,407.41, Telephone Repeater reverse engineering at Hill AFB valued at $30,161.59, and Power Management Control reverse engineering for F108 engines at Tinker AFB valued at $109,590.00. The procurement efforts span multiple fiscal years from 2026 through 2030, indicating a sustained and strategic acquisition strategy. Components of particular concern include B-52 windshields experiencing significant supply shortages, landing gear cylinders, electronic assemblies, engine control systems, and circuit card assemblies for electronic countermeasure systems. Interested vendors should direct inquiries and submissions to the specified Air Force workflow email addresses provided in the detailed quad chart documentation.
