Defense Logistics Agency Aviation was soliciting a Brake Control Valve Manifold Assembly (NSN 1630-01-045-4508) for F-16 aircraft, with quotations due April 10, 2026. This solicitation has been cancelled as of September 9, 2026.

The procurement was restricted to qualified sources bearing CAGE codes 61898, 81755, or 91816. Prospective offerors not previously qualified were required to satisfy ten mandatory qualification requirements, including certification of manufacturing, inspection, testing, packaging, and storage facilities; complete possession of the technical data package; and government-approved qualification testing at the offeror's expense with an estimated cost of $3,000.00 and 365-day completion timeline. Five Source Qualification Waiver Criteria existed for sources with prior government supply of identical articles, qualification for related assemblies, or prior qualification for earlier dash numbers of the same part without increased complexity. Full qualification was mandatory before contract award eligibility, though qualification did not guarantee award. A post-contract award first article exhibit could be required to verify production capability.
