About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal is conducting a Sources Sought notice to identify qualified companies for developing and manufacturing Klystron Electron Tubes for the Homing All Way Killer (HAWK) Missile System. Specifically, the Army is seeking suppliers capable of producing three distinct Klystron models with corresponding National Stock Numbers (NSNs): VA-896D1, VA-517B1, and VKX-7968A1. Vendors must demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of the HAWK system and maintain ANSI/ISO/ASQ Q9001 quality standards. Potential contractors will need to prove financial stability to operate under a firm fixed-price contract without upfront funding and possess facilities capable of handling Klystron Electron Tube Spares. The technical requirements include an established quality assurance plan, HAZMAT program, experienced personnel, necessary equipment and test capabilities, and the ability to meet MIL STD packaging requirements for classified and magnetized items.

This procurement will be an all-or-nothing solicitation with no partial bids accepted, and the current Sources Sought notice does not specify a specific award value or budget range. The notice was posted on January 21, 2025, with responses due by February 4, 2025, and is categorized under NAICS code 336419 for Other Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing. The procurement is not designated for any specific set-aside category, indicating open competition for qualified vendors. The RFI responses will be used exclusively for market research purposes, with no payment provided for submissions, and any future solicitation will be formally posted on SAM.GOV. The procurement focuses on Product Service Code (PSC) 1336 for Guided Missile Warheads and Explosive Components, suggesting a highly specialized and technical procurement process targeting advanced defense manufacturing capabilities.
