Signal conditioner

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama is conducting market research for a Signal Conditioner (NSN: 6695-01-563-7799, Part Number: 724PS413-9) that supports the CH-47 CHINOOK weapon system. This Sources Sought Synopsis seeks to identify potential manufacturing and supply sources capable of producing this specialized component, which the government currently cannot purchase, develop, or reverse engineer from additional sources beyond the existing single responsible source. Contractors must meet prequalification requirements and will be responsible for comprehensive services including recurring and nonrecurring engineering services, supply chain management, logistics, parts forecasting, and final asset delivery. The acquisition falls under Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(a)(1) due to the sole source nature of the requirement. The response deadline for this market research inquiry is October 17, 2025, providing interested parties with only three days to submit their capabilities information.

This opportunity does not include any set-aside designation and is open to all qualified businesses, though the agency specifically invites responses from 8(a), small business, small disadvantaged business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HubZone, and Women-Owned small business concerns to identify themselves as potential sources. The current procurement appears to be justified as a sole source acquisition, suggesting there may be an existing incumbent contractor, though no specific company names are mentioned in the documentation. The NAICS code 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) carries a small business size standard of 600 employees. No contract values, quantities, or performance timelines are specified in this preliminary market research document, as this Sources Sought Synopsis is explicitly stated to be for informational and market research purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee future contract award.
