The U.S. Coast Guard is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice to identify capable vendors who can supply factory-new parts for Receiver-Transmitter Radars and Antennas used on HC-130J aircraft. The specific items being sought are two units each of NSN 5841-01-522-1618 with part number 780R270G10 and NSN 5985-01-431-7448 with part number 788R330G01. This notice is strictly for informational and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or any obligation to award a contract. Respondents are required to provide detailed information about their company, including name, address, CAGE code, point of contact, and responses to a series of questions covering OEM status, subcontracting options, lead times, payment terms, business size classification, NAICS code, and small business certifications such as 8(a), HUBZone, Women-Owned, or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned status. Additionally, respondents must indicate whether their product is listed on a GSA schedule, provide examples of other government users, and share insights on preferred contract types and general feedback. Responses must be submitted via email to Kiley.E.Brown2@uscg.mil and D05-SMB-LRS-Procurement@uscg.mil with the subject line referencing solicitation number 70Z03826IH0000026, and are due by 12:00 PM EDT on May 19, 2026. The U.S. Coast Guard will acknowledge receipt but will not treat responses as submissions for a future contract award. If procurement proceeds, a formal solicitation will be published on SAM.gov, at which point interested parties must submit proposals through that official channel. The NAICS code associated with this effort is 336413, and the acquiring office is the Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, under the Department of Homeland Security. No set-aside provisions are currently planned, and all responses will be evaluated to inform potential future acquisition strategies without guaranteeing follow-on action.
