About this opportunity

The 355th Contracting Squadron, under the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command, has issued a sole source procurement notice for a Fluid Powered Additive Injector Cart (FPAIC). The agency intends to award a contract to Hammonds Technical Services, Inc. for the procurement of two FPAIC units without competition. This Special Notice was posted on August 6, 2025, and provides a brief opportunity for other contractors to respond if they can provide the required product. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC code 2915 for Engine Fuel System Components.

The FPAIC system is required to address critical fuel additive injection needs for military aircraft operating outside the continental United States, where local fuel supplies lack necessary additives such as Fuel System Icing Inhibitor, corrosion inhibitors, and anti-static compounds. Contractors interested in responding must be capable of providing the specified product and must be registered as a small business through SAM.gov. The deadline for responses is August 8, 2025, giving potential contractors only two days to submit their capability statements. The sole source justification indicates that Hammonds' FPAIC is the only commercially available, off-the-shelf product certified by the Air Force Petroleum Office and approved as Fuels Servicing Equipment, making it the only authorized additive injector system for Air Force use. Market research confirmed no other manufacturers produce a certified injector cart meeting the Air Force's technical requirements.
