AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Air Force, through the Air Force Sustainment Center’s PZIEA office at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, intends to sole-source the procurement of Jimsphere High Resolution Wind Profiler weather balloons with a 2-meter diameter made from clear 1/2 mil polyester film to Meteorological Products Inc. This action is authorized under RFO 6.103-1, as the government lacks the technical information or alternative sources capable of servicing or supplying this specialized equipment, and only the original equipment manufacturer can meet operational requirements. Although this is not a solicitation and competitive quotes are not currently being accepted, responsible sources may submit capability statements within eight calendar days of the notice’s publication on May 14, 2026, with a response deadline of May 22, 2026. Any submissions will be reviewed at the government’s discretion, but no delay in award will occur pending source approval, as the timeline for new source approval typically cannot accommodate contract scheduling needs.
