About this opportunity
The United States Air Force Sustainment Center at Tinker Air Force Base is conducting market research to identify potential sources for the remanufacture of B-52 stabilizer trim components. This Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) aims to explore the feasibility of a competitive procurement or potential small business set-aside for the project. The government is seeking contractors capable of providing comprehensive repair services, including labor, materials, facilities, and equipment to repair, test, preserve, package, and return units. Interested vendors must submit a detailed Source Approval Request (SAR) package that demonstrates their technical capabilities, quality assurance processes, and compliance with specific qualification requirements. Potential sources will be evaluated based on their ability to manage supply chain logistics, address parts forecasting, handle long-lead procurement, and mitigate obsolescence challenges.
The market research does not currently specify a set-aside designation, though the government explicitly welcomes submissions from Small Businesses, Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a) businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone Small Businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses. While no specific award value or budget range is disclosed, the solicitation indicates the potential for breaking requirements out by airframe. Technical data requests must be submitted to the Tinker AFB Public Sales Office, with a $65 fee per Technical Order and additional charges for documentation. The market research period runs from December 4, 2024, to January 6, 2025, during which potential contractors can prepare and submit their comprehensive SAR packages for review. The government emphasizes that this is a market research effort only, with no guaranteed contractual commitment or funding allocation at this stage.
