About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice to identify potential manufacturers or suppliers of Swashplate Expandable Pins (NSN 5315-01-096-9169) for Black Hawk helicopters, including UH-60A, UH-60L, HH/UH-60M, and UH-60V models. Interested companies must submit responses by April 3, 2026, to demonstrate their capability to manufacture or legitimately obtain this hardware component. The primary evaluation criterion is whether prospective contractors can competently manufacture the product to the same level of quality or better than the currently approved sources. Companies seeking approval must apply through the Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires submission of comprehensive technical documentation demonstrating that their product equals or exceeds the quality standards of the incumbent approved items. This notice is strictly for informational and market research purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment by the government to award a contract.

This opportunity is not designated as a set-aside contract. The current approved sources of supply include Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (CAGE 78286, Part Number 70104-08015-102) and Avibank Manufacturing, Inc. (CAGE 84256, Part Number ADB216-102). No specific award value or budget information is provided in this pre-solicitation notice, as it remains in the market research phase. There are no specified quantity requirements or service timelines detailed at this stage. Companies interested in becoming qualified approved sources should contact the primary point of contact, Acquisition Specialist April Wynn at DLA Weapons Support Richmond (445-737-4868), for guidance on the SAR application process and to obtain the necessary technical documentation required for their response.
