16 -- Actuator Assembly

The Air Force has issued a notice under FAR 9.2 establishing Qualification Requirements for companies interested in the repair or overhaul of specific parts, including the actuator assembly and landing gear control assembly identified by their respective NSNs and part numbers. This notice serves to inform potential contractors that they must undergo a source approval process to qualify for future repair or overhaul work, although there is no current contract solicitation or plan to procure these services imminently. Importantly, the Air Force does not necessarily possess the technical data needed for these repairs, and this announcement is solely for qualification purposes, not a request for proposal. Interested parties seeking the Qualification Requirements document must submit a written request directly to the Small Business Office at Tinker Air Force Base, with no telephone inquiries accepted, emphasizing formal written correspondence only. The solicitation reference number is linked to the actuator assembly, with no specified issue or response dates, indicating that this is a pre-solicitation notice aimed at gathering qualified sources rather than an active procurement event. The notice does not indicate set-aside status or specify NAICS codes, focusing strictly on establishing a pool of qualified repair sources for potential future work.
