This is a sources sought synopsis issued under solicitation number FA8227-26-Q-FTSS to conduct market research for the procurement of Fatigue Test Stand Spindles for the Power Take-Off Shaft Cyclic Endurance Test Stand 53E19-95B. The notice is not a solicitation, request for proposal, or binding commitment; it is purely for planning and acquisition strategy development purposes, and no contract award will be made as a result of responses. The government is seeking information on industry capabilities, particularly from small businesses including 8(a), HUBZone, Woman-Owned, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Veteran-Owned concerns, using NAICS code 332721 with a size standard of 500 employees. Respondents are required to provide their business information, including company name, address, CAGE code, point of contact, and self-certification of small business status and socioeconomic designations. They must also disclose any anticipated teaming arrangements, clearly separating the roles and responsibilities of the prime contractor from those of teaming partners, and describe similar services provided to government and commercial customers over the past three years. All responses must be submitted by close of business on August 17, 2026, via email or mail to the designated point of contact at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. The government will use the information gathered to determine whether the requirement is suitable for a total small business set-aside and to shape future procurement actions. The technical requirement involves the delivery of three U10100 spindles, two U10615 spindles, and one UA2086 spindle to Hill AFB, with no pricing or contract line items included in this notice. Intellectual property rights for the spindles remain with the original developer, and any subsequent contract would be governed by DFARS 252.227-7015 regarding technical data rights for commercial products. Responses will not be returned, no questions will be entertained during this research phase, and no formal evaluation factors, delivery schedules, packaging standards, or invoicing procedures are defined at this time.
