This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 333912 for Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing. The contract involves substantial quantities of precision-manufactured components, including 287 rotor blades for the VA-1107 system, 374 stator blades for the VA-1107 system, and 419 rotor blades for the VA-1409 system, along with corresponding nuts and washers totaling over 3,000 individual components. Each blade must be individually packaged in protective plywood boxes with bubble wrap protection and delivered with a one-year warranty covering workmanship and material defects. The place of performance is Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee, where the blades will be installed in the Propulsion Wind Tunnel facility. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management and possess current NIST SP 800-171 assessments to be eligible for award consideration.
