This Sources Sought Notice is designed to determine if companies can manufacture or legitimately obtain this specialized component, which is currently produced by Champion Aerospace and General Electric Company. Interested parties are invited to submit responses by February 3rd, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, with all submissions required to be emailed to Tatjana Klemmer. Respondents must demonstrate their capability to produce the item at a quality level equal to or better than the existing approved sources through a comprehensive Source Approval Request (SAR) package. The technical evaluation will focus on the contractor's ability to competently manufacture the product, with the burden of proof resting on the potential supplier to document their product's equivalence or superiority.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside classification, meaning the opportunity appears to be open to all qualified manufacturers. The current manufacturers, Champion Aerospace (Cage 0AFL4) with part number CH31765 and General Electric Company (Cage 07482) with part number 1156M91P09, are the benchmark for quality and performance. While no specific award value or quantity is mentioned in the notice, the opportunity is specifically for the aircraft engine electrical system components manufacturing sector, classified under NAICS 336412. The procurement is specifically for the Weapon System Designator Code 05F, suggesting a military aviation application. Importantly, the government emphasizes that this notice is for informational purposes only, does not constitute a formal solicitation, and creates no obligation to award a contract, with no funds available for response preparation.
