Remanufacture of B-52 Jet Engine Fuel Pump

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center (AFSC) is seeking a contractor to remanufacture B-52 Jet Engine Fuel Pumps, specifically NSN 2915-01-533-9141. The solicitation is for a one-time firm-fixed-quantity contract to produce 25 units of a specific fuel pump component that drains fuel from Main and Cabin fuel line refueling manifolds. Qualification requirements are stringent, and interested vendors must obtain engineering source approval from the Source Development Office. Vendors will be required to specify their business size status and nationality when responding to the solicitation. The government plans to issue the full solicitation around January 15, 2025, with an Ombudsman available at 405-736-3273 to address potential vendor concerns during proposal development.

The contract opportunity is positioned within the Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing NAICS category (336413) and is classified under the Engine Fuel System Components PSC category. While initially noted as an 8(a) Sole Source opportunity, the synopsis indicates the contract is not set aside and will not use commercial item acquisition procedures. The fuel pump, constructed of aluminum alloy, measures 6.50' h x 8.30' w x 10.50' l and weighs 6.5 lbs. The contract requires a delivery schedule of 2 units every 60 days, with an extensive list of applicable technical orders and Air Force manuals that will guide the manufacturing specifications. Electronic procedures will be used for the solicitation, and vendors must carefully review the detailed technical requirements before submitting a proposal.
