About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking contractors capable of repairing B-2 Brake Metering Valves, specifically part number 71549-1 with NSN 4820-01-389-4712LE. This pre-solicitation notice involves industrial valve manufacturing services under NAICS code 332911 for nonpowered valves. The procurement is structured as a Sources Sought Synopsis to identify potential suppliers with the technical capabilities to perform these specialized brake valve repairs. An amendment was issued on October 8, 2025, correcting the Thomas Instrument CAGE code, though the original response deadline remains unchanged. Interested parties must respond by October 30, 2025, and should review the attached Sources Sought Synopsis document for detailed requirements and submission instructions.
This opportunity does not utilize any small business set-aside designations, making it open to all qualified contractors regardless of size. The notice does not specify current incumbent contractors, though the amendment referencing Thomas Instrument suggests they may have previous involvement with this component or similar work. No contract value estimates or budget ranges are provided in this pre-solicitation phase, as this appears to be a market research effort to gauge contractor capabilities and interest. The notice also does not indicate specific quantities of valves requiring repair or performance timelines, information that would likely be included in the formal solicitation following this sources sought period. The specialized nature of B-2 aircraft components suggests this will require contractors with appropriate security clearances and demonstrated experience with military aircraft brake systems.
