ICBM Bulkhead Assembly

DLA Aviation at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, is soliciting offers for 40 each of NSN 1420-01-390-4419, an ICBM Bulkhead Assembly, with proposals due November 25, 2026 under Amendment 0002. The structured Set Aside line reads Total Small Business, which governs eligibility. The Amendment 0002 attachment summary reports that the small business set-aside was dissolved, so confirm that against the amendment itself before bidding.

The notice's Due Date field reads November 26, 2026, but Amendment 0002 extends the offer due date to November 25, 2026. Amendment 0001, which extended the date to October 23, 2026, is superseded. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of Amendment 0002 before the extended deadline by completing and returning the amendment, acknowledging it on each offer copy, or submitting a separate letter or electronic communication. Failure to acknowledge may result in rejection. The contracting officer is Kody R Quayle, kody.quayle@us.af.mil, (385) 591-0103.

The procurement is firm fixed-price, with delivery to Hill Air Force Base on an F.O.B. destination basis and payment through Wide Area WorkFlow. Per the attachment summary, the schedule offers two bids. Bid A requires 39 production units with a first article test, and Bid B requires 40 units without a first article test if the contractor meets waiver conditions. Production delivery is due within 180 to 210 calendar days, and the first article test report is due within 210 calendar days. The contractor must notify the government 30 days before first article shipment and submit the First Article Test Report concurrently with shipment. Offers are valid for 120 days.

The bulkhead must conform to drawing 23007735 and a sub-tier Engineering Data List of 35 documents. Release of that data to foreign-owned, controlled, or influenced companies requires Foreign Disclosure Office approval. The data is export-controlled under the Arms Export Control Act, carries CUI markings, and is limited to DoD and U.S. DoD contractors. Other requirements include Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Level 2 self-assessment, Buy American Act compliance, item unique identification, supply chain traceability documentation, and military packaging under MIL-STD-2073-1 and MIL-STD-129, with ISPM 15-compliant wood packaging.

Evaluation uses cost as the primary factor, with all other evaluation factors combined significantly less important than price. The notice names no incumbent.
