About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure Fuel, Metering Pumps for F-16 aircraft, specifically with NSN 2915-01-147-2644 and part number 44143. These aluminum alloy pumps are critical components that help maintain aircraft center of gravity by controlling fuel transfer between reservoirs. The solicitation (RFQ# SPRTA1-25-R-0303) will be available on www.fbo.gov, with proposals accepted between April 25 and May 16, 2025. The government will evaluate offers based on a combination of price and past performance factors, with price being a significant consideration. An Ombudsman is available at (405) 734-8241 to address potential contractor concerns during the proposal development phase, maintaining confidentiality and serving as a communication channel.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific small business set-aside, with Eaton Corporation (CAGE: 86090) currently identified as a qualified source. The total procurement calls for 216 units, with a minimum order of 54 and a maximum of 324 pumps. Delivery is structured to be 15 units per month from July 23, 2025, through August 23, 2026, with a final delivery of 6 units on September 23, 2026. Early delivery is acceptable, and the anticipated contract award is expected within 60 days of the notice. The contract's funding is contingent upon appropriated funds availability, and the procurement is being conducted under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), which allows solicitation from a limited number of sources when specific requirements cannot be satisfied by alternative supplies or services.
