About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command is procuring 10 wheels for an FMC B600 tow tractor used with KC-46 aircraft operations at McConnell Air Force Base. The procurement requires steel wheels with specific technical specifications including part number 111766, dimensions of 22.50 X 11.75 with a 10-hole configuration, 280mm center bore, and various other precise measurements outlined in the Statement of Need. Contractors must demonstrate complete understanding of requirements and coordinate delivery within 30 days of contract acceptance during normal business hours, excluding federal holidays and wing down days. The solicitation uses a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, where the government will cease evaluations once two technically acceptable offers are received. The amended response deadline is August 28, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST, following an extension from the original August 19 deadline due to updated requirements.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, specifically for Women-Owned Small Business concerns under NAICS code 336390 with a size standard of 1,000 employees. While Oshkosh AeroTech is identified as the original manufacturer of the FMC B600 tow tractor, the solicitation allows for equivalent wheels from qualified suppliers, indicating no sole-source arrangement with an incumbent contractor. The contract award value is not specified in the available documentation, though it involves a firm fixed-price arrangement for the 10 required wheel rims. Performance will take place at McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita, Kansas, with the 22nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron serving as the end user for these tow tractor components. The government reserves the right to make an award without further negotiations once technically acceptable proposals meeting the LPTA criteria are identified.
