About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is conducting market research for runway broom bristles through this Sources Sought notice, specifically seeking cassette poly/wire refills for runway maintenance equipment at Offutt Air Force Base. The government intends to procure two specific items: Eagle & Myslik Inc. Cassette Poly/Wire Refills (Manufacturer Number #4021595, Broom Core Combination Poly/Wire Mix, Oshkosh Model) and United Rotary Cassette Poly/Wire Refills (Manufacturer Number #29-CPW265224, MB Model). This market research exercise requires interested vendors to submit a letter of interest, capabilities statement, and responses to specific questions about their ability to provide the identified items or suitable alternatives. The government plans to issue this as a brand name required commodity purchase unless market research reveals acceptable alternative products that are compatible with existing equipment. All submissions must be received by 11:00 AM CST on July 10, 2025, via email to the designated contracting officers.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, limiting participation to qualified small business entities. No current incumbents or contractors are specifically identified in the notice, as this represents an initial market research phase rather than a contract award opportunity. The United Rotary refills are specified to come in boxes containing 56 pieces each, though total quantities needed are not disclosed in the main notice but may be detailed in the attached government files. The government indicates that depending on industry capabilities, this requirement may be fulfilled through either one combined contract or two separate contracts for the different manufacturer items. No specific budget ranges or award values are provided, as this pre-solicitation notice serves purely for market research purposes with no awards to be made based on the responses received.
