AI Contract Overview
The Department of Defense, through AFLCMC/WBK-2, plans to award a sole-source contract to L3Harris Technologies for the B-2 Supply Chain Velocity Initiative. This contract, authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, will designate L3Harris as the independent lead responsible for reverse engineering, acquiring technical data rights, and managing a "hub-and-spoke" network of sub-tier manufacturers to revitalize the B-2 Spirit aircraft supply chain. The initiative aims to complement existing supply and repair sources, enhancing overall sustainment capabilities for the B-2 fleet. A preceding market research phase confirmed that L3Harris uniquely meets all requirements, including possessing SAP-cleared infrastructure and extensive fleet-level sustainment experience, justifying the sole-source approach. The contract opportunity, identified under solicitation number FA811026D000X and posted on May 27, 2026, invites any alternate responsible sources to challenge the sole-source determination by submitting a capability statement by June 11, 2026, per the outlined mandatory requirements. The work will primarily be performed in S Coffeyville, Oklahoma, with administrative oversight from the AFLCMC WBK-2 office located at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma. Points of contact and further information are available through the Department of Defense’s official channels, emphasizing the strategic importance of regenerating the B-2 supply chain through this targeted and specialized effort.

Full Description
AFLCMC/WBK-2 intends to solicit and negotiate a sole-source contract with L3Harris Technologies under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. This action will establish L3Harris as an independent lead for the B-2 Spirit Supply Chain Velocity Initiative (SCVI), focusing on reverse engineering, technical data rights acquisition, and the management of a "hub-and-spoke" network of sub-tier manufacturers to regenerate the B-2 supply chain. The contractor will serve as a complementary force multiplier to established B-2 sources of supply and repair. This Notice of Intent follows a previously completed market research phase, which conclusively determined that L3Harris is the only source possessing the mandatory existing SAP-cleared infrastructure and fleet-level sustainment experience required for this effort. While this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, any alternate responsible sources challenging this sole-source determination must submit a capability statement in strict accordance with the mandatory requirements outlined in the attached synopsis document.
