28 -- Seal, Air Turbine

This contract outlines the qualification requirements established by Engineering for a specific item, the Air Turbine Seal (part number 4803716-01, NSN 2840-01-445-4017NZ), which is applied to the F-100 engine. The qualification requirements are mandated for all models and series of F100 engine components identified as Critical Safety Items by the Cognizant Engineering Authority, except for Flight Safety Critical Parts. Authorization of the manufacturing qualification requirements (MQR-1) is formalized through separate signed documents by the Cognizant Engineering Authority or their designee. Previous approvals under earlier revisions of MQR-1 remain valid unless superseded by a newer approval. Requests for a copy of the Qualification Requirement document must be submitted in writing to the Small Business Office at Tinker AFB, with no telephone requests allowed and only requests received directly from the requester accepted. This contract is not a request for proposal but rather a reference for qualification compliance in manufacturing and approval processes. The solicitation is a sources-sought notice under the NAICS code 336412, indicating interest in potential suppliers for future contract opportunities related to the Air Turbine Seal for the F-100 engine.
