AI Contract Overview

This sources sought notice is not a solicitation and does not obligate the government to award a contract, but it seeks to identify qualified manufacturers capable of producing the item under NAICS code 335999, which carries a size standard of 600 employees. All interested parties—including 8(a), small business, small disadvantaged, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and women-owned small businesses—are encouraged to respond, provided they meet prequalification requirements and can demonstrate the ability to manage the full manufacturing process, including supply chain logistics, long-lead procurement, obsolescence mitigation, and final delivery at approved unit prices. Firms seeking to compete for future solicitations must be prepared to bear all costs associated with qualifying as a source, including recurring and nonrecurring engineering efforts. The notice emphasizes that any response is voluntary and will not be compensated, and no funds are available for preparation. Due to the technical nature of the item, export controls under the Arms Export Control Act and the Export Administration Act apply; therefore, both the offeror and any supply source must possess an active United States/Canada Joint Certification Program certification to access controlled technical data. The government will not delay award to accommodate the acquisition of such certification, and foreign firms must route all inquiries through their respective embassies. Responses are due by August 10, 2026, and while this date may shift depending on the release of a formal solicitation, no award will occur prior to this deadline. Point of contact for further information is Kristen Woodard and Becky Brady at DLA Aviation in Huntsville, Alabama.
