The procurement encompasses new manufacturing capabilities including component parts procurement, inspection, testing, packaging, and shipping services. Qualified vendors must be capable of managing supply chain logistics and demonstrate manufacturing competency in this specialized component area. The government is seeking a Source Approval Request (SAR) package and business information from interested vendors, with a submission deadline of February 6, 2026. This is a market research effort only, and while no formal solicitation is currently available, the government is establishing supplier qualifications for potential future spares procurement through December 31, 2026. No specific evaluation criteria have been detailed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this phase is focused on identifying capable sources rather than formal competitive evaluation.

This pre-solicitation notice does not utilize any small business set-aside designations, meaning competition is open to all business types including small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, 8(a) firms, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses. No incumbent contractor or current supplier information has been identified in the notice. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 336412 with a size standard of 1,500 employees, and performance will occur at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. While specific award values or quantity requirements are not disclosed in this market research phase, the government has indicated spares requirements through the end of 2026. Interested vendors should note that participation in this source identification process provides no guarantee of future contract award.
