About this opportunity
The 4th Contracting Squadron, Air Combat Command, issued a presolicitation notice on August 20, 2026 of intent to sole-source two Portable Cabin Pressure Testers (TRONAIR 15-7609-6000-FJ or equal) to A3 Systems Corporation, with a response deadline of August 27, 2026; this is a Total Small Business set-aside, but the Government invites competing offerors to submit evidence that competition would be advantageous, cost-effective, timely, and aligned with mission objectives.
The equipment supports routine and recurring maintenance of aircraft environmental control and pressurization systems at the 4th Maintenance Group, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. Each test set measures 26.4 inches in height and width by 21.7 inches in length, weighs 195 pounds, and is housed in an aluminum transport case with wheels and retractable handle for field deployment. The Government justifies sole-source procurement on the basis of proven reliability, compatibility with existing maintenance procedures, mobility, durability in high-tempo operational environments, improved maintenance efficiency, reduced aircraft downtime, and standardized testing capability.
Interested offerors should submit a response demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competitive procurement would benefit the Government without incurring unacceptable cost, schedule, or mission risk. This is not a request for competitive quotes; no formal solicitation is available. The Government retains sole discretion to proceed with competition and assumes no responsibility for response costs.
