16 -- Rotary Actuator

The Air Force has issued a notice under FAR 9.2 establishing Qualification Requirements (QRs) for companies interested in the repair and overhaul of a specific rotary actuator, identified by NSN 1680-01-149-3166 and part number R1487M2-1. This notice serves to inform potential contractors that they must complete a source approval process to be eligible for future work, although there is no current plan to contract the repair or overhaul of these items nor does the Air Force currently have the necessary data for such repairs. Interested parties may obtain a copy of the Qualification Requirements by submitting a written request directly to the Small Business Office at Tinker Air Force Base, with no telephone requests accepted. This announcement is not a solicitation or request for proposal, and no issuance or response dates have been established. The notice is intended to pre-qualify sources in anticipation of any potential future needs regarding the rotary actuator. The response to this synopsis will help the Air Force identify capable contractors who meet the stringent qualifications required for maintenance of this equipment, although current immediate procurement is not contemplated.
