The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting a sources sought notice for a specific aircraft part identified by National Stock Number (NSN) 1560014494217, with a corresponding Part Number 17P1A4605-1. This pre-solicitation notice is designed to identify potential manufacturers capable of producing this aircraft step or component within the aviation parts sector. The agency is seeking information from manufacturers about their capability to produce this specific item, with respondents required to provide details including their manufacturing location (city and state) and relevant points of contact. All responses should be submitted directly to Annette Pruett at annette.pruett@dla.mil by June 9, 2025. It is critical to understand that this sources sought notice is purely informational, does not constitute an official solicitation, and does not guarantee any contract award or compensation for response preparation.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside classification for this opportunity, suggesting it will be open to a broad range of manufacturers within the Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing NAICS category (336413). The procurement falls under the Airframe Structural Components product service code (1560), which suggests a specialized technical requirement for the aircraft step being sought. While no specific award value or quantity is disclosed in the notice, the targeted nature of the NSN implies a precise, potentially low-volume requirement. The opportunity is strictly voluntary, with respondents providing information at their own discretion and with no guarantee of future contract consideration. Interested manufacturers should carefully review the technical specifications and be prepared to demonstrate their manufacturing capabilities for this specific aircraft component.
