This special notice, posted on April 30, 2026, indicates the government's preliminary intent to award the contract to Military Airlift Experts LLC (MILAIRX LLC) based on market research demonstrating that only this vendor has previously demonstrated the capability to meet the specified requirements. However, the notice does not preclude competition and invites all responsible sources to submit documentation of their ability to fulfill the specifications.

The specification sheet details that each modular shoring kit must be configured as 4-Leg 2up2dwn with a 448-inch assembled length and include specific ramp sections, wedges, stands, and a top-open side-access container with integrated forklift access. All kits must be certified for air transportability on C-5, C-17, and C-130 aircraft, and the contractor must provide English-language training manuals, technical support, spare parts capability with overseas shipping support, and a one-year warranty on all parts. Any responsible source meeting these technical and certification specifications may submit a proposal for consideration; the government will evaluate all submissions to determine the appropriateness of pursuing a competitive procurement.
