16 -- Pressure Regulating Valve

The Air Force has issued a notice under FAR 9.2 establishing Qualification Requirements (QRs) for companies interested in performing repair or overhaul services on a specific Pressure Regulating Valve identified by NSN 1650-01-072-3536RK and PN 60251-31. This notice serves as a source approval announcement, indicating that any potential contractor must successfully complete the source approval process to be qualified for future repair or overhaul work. Importantly, this announcement is not a solicitation for proposals, nor does it confirm that the Air Force plans to pursue repair or overhaul services imminently, nor that it currently possesses the data necessary for repair. Interested parties seeking the detailed Qualification Requirements must submit a written request directly to the Small Business Office at Tinker Air Force Base, with no telephone inquiries accepted and only requests sent directly by the interested company considered valid. No specific response dates or set-aside designations are provided, and the notice does not include information about the potential place of performance or NAICS codes. This effort is purely for qualification purposes to establish a pool of approved sources for the Pressure Regulating Valve repair/overhaul work.
