AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Air Force, through the Air Force Sustainment Center and the 421st Supply Chain Management Squadron at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, is conducting market research under FAR Part 10 to identify potential sources capable of manufacturing new spare components for the F108 engine fairing, identified by NSN 2840011831903PN and part number 301-301-706-0. This sources sought notice, posted on June 23, 2026, with a response deadline of July 13, 2026, is not a solicitation and does not obligate the government to award a contract or allocate funds. The requirement calls for vendors to demonstrate the ability to produce the part from scratch, including sourcing components, manufacturing, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, shipping, supply chain management, and addressing diminishing manufacturing sources and long-lead item challenges. Nonrecurring engineering costs associated with qualification as an approved source may be the responsibility of the vendor. The North American Industry Classification System code is 336412, with a size standard of 1,500 employees, and the government is seeking responses from all business categories including small businesses, 8(a) firms, HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, women-owned, and small disadvantaged businesses. The estimated annual requirement ranges from a minimum of three units to a maximum of fourteen units, with procurement possibly segmented by airframe. All offers must participate by selecting the “Add Me to Interested Vendors” button and submitting a complete Source Approval Request (SAR) package through the DoD SAFE portal, with no PKI access requiring an alternative drop-off process via designated email. Compliance with Manufacturing Qualification Requirement MQR-PSD-1 and the Engineering Data List (EDL) is mandatory, but no technical drawings or specifications are provided, placing responsibility on the vendor to obtain necessary data independently. Packaging and marking requirements are implied to follow standard defense logistics practices, though specific MIL-STD codes are not cited. Responses must include business certifications such as CAGE code, UEI, and socioeconomic status to determine eligibility for potential set-asides, and final acceptance will occur at Tinker AFB. No contract type, pricing, delivery schedule, or evaluation criteria are defined at this stage, as the purpose is solely to gather industry capability data to inform future acquisition planning.
