About this opportunity

The United States Coast Guard, operating under the Department of Homeland Security, is conducting market research to identify potential sources for two aerospace components: a Tail Cone Fixture (Part Number RT70310) and a Sling, Dual Strap, Tail Cone (Part Number SG70100). This sources sought notice is for information gathering purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or obligation to award a contract. Interested firms must respond by November 10, 2025, with company information including name, address, telephone number, and point of contact, along with approximate lead-time for delivery. Respondents should address specific qualification questions including whether their firm is an OEM authorized facility with an associated Cage Code, business size and employee count, applicable NAICS code, and small business classification status if applicable. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 333514 (Special Die and Tool, Die Set, Jig, and Fixture Manufacturing) and PSC code 4920 (Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment), indicating the specialized nature of these items.

This sources sought notice involves no set-aside designations and is open to all qualified suppliers. Stadco, identified by Cage Code 21225, has been recognized as the Original Equipment Manufacturer for these components; however, the Coast Guard explicitly welcomes alternate sources provided they can demonstrate clear traceability documentation from the OEM to their current location. Non-OEM offerors must present a complete, auditable paper trail establishing their supply chain legitimacy. The notice does not specify contract award values, quantity requirements, or service timelines, as this is preliminary market research rather than a formal procurement action. The response deadline of November 10, 2025, allows interested parties approximately two weeks to gather necessary documentation and submit their capability statements to the Coast Guard.
