About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is procuring a Hot Bonder Repair Kit, Part Number HCS9000B-AV, specifically designed for repair of KC-46 composite parts. The solicitation is being issued by the 916 Maintenance Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base with the intent to sole source this procurement to Heatcon Composite Systems. The government has determined this will be a firm fixed-price arrangement requiring the contractor to deliver the specialized equipment within 30 calendar days of contract award. The evaluation process will assess proposals based on three equally weighted factors: Technical Acceptability, Price Reasonableness, and Delivery Timeliness. The proposal submission deadline is August 21, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST, with submissions directed to SSgt Robert Brownson and MSgt Veronica Guerrero. An amendment was issued to update the NAICS code from 333248 to 334513.

Although the original solicitation documents indicated this would be set aside as a Women-Owned Small Business procurement, the current notice states no set-aside is being used, reflecting the sole source intent to Heatcon Composite Systems. The procurement involves a single repair kit unit with delivery required to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina, specifically to the 916 MXS facility. While specific award values are not disclosed in the available documentation, the procurement falls under PSC code 4920 for Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment. The 30-day delivery timeline from contract award emphasizes the operational urgency of this specialized composite repair equipment for KC-46 aircraft maintenance operations. The amendment updating the NAICS classification suggests refinement in how the government categorizes this specialized industrial equipment procurement.
