About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command's 60th Maintenance Squadron is soliciting quotations for a Wheel Build-Up Stand and Wheel Assembly Stand to support aircraft wheel assembly operations for C-17, C-5, and KC-46 aircraft at Travis Air Force Base. The current torque system is inoperative and requires replacement parts, while the existing wheel build-up stand has reached end-of-life status, reducing production capacity to 25% of normal operations and creating potential supply chain delays. The contractor must provide equipment capable of simultaneously torquing two wheel nuts with 2% accuracy at maximum torque and 1-degree torque angle tolerance, with a torque range of 45-225 ft/lbs, and a wheel build-up stand capable of lifting and aligning wheels between 16-24 inches in diameter with 37-50 inch tires. Delivery, installation, training, warranty, and calibration equipment must be completed within 30 days of contract award. The evaluation will be based on technical capability and price, with quotations due by November 19, 2025 at 12:00 PM PST.
This solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) with PSC code 4920 (Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment). No incumbent contractor is identified in the available documentation. The contract structure is a Firm Fixed Price award, though specific budget ranges are not disclosed in the solicitation materials. The place of performance is 690 Airmen Drive, Travis Air Force Base, California 94535. Interested small businesses should submit proposals via email to the designated points of contact, with all necessary technical specifications and pricing information detailed in the Statement of Need and Brand Name Justification documents provided by the contracting office.
Notice text
60th Maintenance Squadron/Wheel & Tire has a requirement to assemble multiple types of aircraft wheels to include C-17, C-5 and KC-46 main and nose wheel assemblies. To perform this task, the Government uses a tilt cylinder wheel build-up stand paired with a twin-spindle torquing system meant for aircraft wheel assemblies. The current torque system needs repairs and is inoperative. It requires upgrade parts. The wheel build-up stand in use has come to its end of life and requires replacement/upgrade. Without these units Wheel & Tire’s production is reduced to 25% of normal operation potentially causing supply chain delay.
