The Air Force has issued a notice under FAR 9.2 establishing Qualification Requirements (QRs) for companies interested in the repair or overhaul of a specific hand pump assembly, identified by NSN 2915-00-908-2681 and Part Number RR17790A. This notice serves to inform potential sources that they must undergo a source approval process before being considered for any future repair or overhaul contracts involving this item.

Interested parties must submit a written request directly to the Small Business Office at Tinker AFB to obtain the qualification requirements, with telephone requests not accepted. This notification is specifically a sources sought announcement and is not a request for proposals, meaning no competitive bidding or response deadlines are currently set.

The intent is to establish a pool of capable contractors through the qualification process, ensuring readiness for any future maintenance or overhaul efforts involving this equipment.
