About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting a sources sought notice for the procurement of structural aluminum plates specifically designed for KC-135 aircraft, identified by NSN 1560-01-617-4269 and part number 5-95837-34. This pre-solicitation represents an informational inquiry to identify potential manufacturers capable of producing these airframe structural components rather than a formal request for proposals. Interested parties must provide manufacturer information including location details and points of contact to Cheryl Broadie at Cheryl.broadie@dla.mil by the September 15, 2025 deadline. The agency emphasizes that responses are strictly voluntary and no evaluation criteria apply since this is purely a market research exercise. The government has made clear that no commitment exists to award contracts based on responses received and no funds are available for response preparation costs.
This opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualifying manufacturers without preference categories. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the notice, suggesting this may represent either a new requirement or a re-competition of existing services. The solicitation does not specify award values, budget ranges, or quantity requirements for the structural plates, focusing instead on identifying capable sources within the aircraft parts manufacturing industry classified under NAICS code 336413. No timeline for potential contract performance is provided, as the current phase is limited to market research and vendor identification. The brief six-day response window from posting to deadline indicates the agency's urgency in gathering manufacturer information for this KC-135 aircraft component requirement.
