The Air Force has issued a sources-sought notice in accordance with relevant federal regulations and public law, establishing Qualification Requirements for two specific items: a Force Transducer and an Autopilot Controller. Companies interested in participating must undergo a source approval process demonstrating they have manufactured the actual items, as approvals based on similarity will not be accepted. This notice does not indicate an imminent purchase or availability of technical data, which is generally not released to the public. For further information, interested parties must submit written requests to the Small Business Office at Tinker Air Force Base, with telephone inquiries not accepted. The items specified include a Force Transducer with the National Stock Number (NSN) 6615-00-086-7345 and part number 2586447, originally manufactured by Honeywell, and an Autopilot Controller with NSN 6615-01-038-7299 and part number 614E5A, originally manufactured by Rockwell Collins.
