About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Reserve Command has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award a sole source contract to MilAirX, LLC for an Air Transportability Test Loading Activity (ATTLA)-certified shoring ramps kit. The notice pertains to a specific requirement for the 337th Airlift Squadron at Westover Air Reserve Base, which needs a kit consisting of two 25K Defense Airlift Modular Approach Shoring Ramps for loading and unloading various military helicopters onto USAF C-5 aircraft. This procurement is specifically targeted as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) sole source award, highlighting the unique capabilities of MilAirX, LLC as the exclusive ATTLA-certified manufacturer of these specialized ramps. The Special Notice was posted on May 23, 2025, with a response deadline of June 6, 2025, at 2:00 PM EDT.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide transparency about the intended sole source award while offering an opportunity for other SDVOSB contractors to demonstrate their capabilities. Interested SDVOSB parties who can supply an ATTLA-certified shoring ramps kit are invited to submit evidence of their interest and capability by the stated deadline. To be considered, contractors must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. The notice emphasizes that any information received will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement might be warranted, with the ultimate decision remaining at the Government's discretion. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with submitting capability information. The procurement is justified by MilAirX, LLC's unique position as the only manufacturer with tested and proven shoring ramps currently in use, meeting specialized military requirements and providing standardization for Air Force auxiliary ramp operations.
