The U.S. Air Force, through the 421st Supply Chain Management Squadron at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, is conducting market research to identify potential sources for the new manufacture of the Cylinder Assembly with part number 5014T92P01 and NSN 1650010074738OK, intended for use on the J85 platform. This effort, conducted under FAR Part 10, is a Sources Sought Synopsis with no current solicitation or funding, and does not commit the government to award a contract. The requirement encompasses full manufacturing capabilities including component procurement, inspection, testing, packaging, shipping, supply chain management, logistics planning, forecasting, and addressing diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortages. Potential vendors may also be responsible for nonrecurring engineering costs to qualify as an approved source. The government is evaluating whether the requirement can be competitively sourced or set aside for small businesses, including Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a) firms, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses, with a size standard of 1,500 employees based on the NAICS code 336412. Responses must be submitted via the “Add Me to Interested Vendors” button by the deadline of August 15, 2026, 4:59 a.m. Central Standard Time, and all information should be sent to the designated workflow email at 421scms.requirements.workflow@us.af.mil. The Department of the Air Force, under the Air Force Sustainment Center and AMC/AMSC 4/B, is seeking comprehensive data from potential suppliers to inform the optimal acquisition strategy, which may include breaking the requirement down by airframe. The place of performance is Tinker AFB, OK 73145, and the government will use responses from interested parties to determine market capability, competition potential, and the best path forward for future contracting actions. No funds are available for this market research phase, and submissions are strictly for analytical and planning purposes.
