SPRRA1-26-R-0042: 4130-01-597-1317; 6110-01-597-1482; 4130-01-597-1300

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, is conducting market research via presolicitation SPRRA1-26-R-0042 to identify qualified sources for three critical UH-60 BLACKHAWK system components: Electrical Pallet A (NSN 6110-01-597-1482), Cooler Unit, Air (NSN 4130-01-597-1317), and Heat Exchanger, R (NSN 4130-01-597-1300). This effort is strictly limited to prequalified manufacturers with source control under DoD-STD-100, specifically Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Envirosystems Inc., and Pioneer Industries, LLC, as no alternative or second-source qualifications are permitted due to restricted technical data and proprietary manufacturing knowledge. Participation is contingent upon current, active Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification for access to export-controlled technical data, with no exceptions or delays permitted for certification acquisition. While pricing and contract value are not available as this is a sources-sought synopsis, delivery is required to TRACEY, CA, with production timelines measured in Days After Contract Award—360 days without First Article Testing and 540 days with it. All offerors must be prequalified via the Aviation and Missile Command public website and are expected to meet stringent export control mandates under the Arms Export Control Act, Export Administration Act, and Executive Order 12470. The government seeks responses from eligible small businesses, including 8(a), SDVOSB, HUBZone, WOSB, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned entities, but no socioeconomic certifications have been submitted as of this stage. Contract administration is overseen by Contract Specialist Raven E. Henderson, with Phyllis R. Carroll listed as the Contracting Officer. Packaging, marking, inspection, and invoicing details are not fully specified; however, items must be labeled with NSN, part number, and CAGE code, and compliance with DoD-STD-100 is mandatory. The proposal submission deadline is April 19, 2026, and responses must be emailed to the designated DLA point of contact. No contract clauses, evaluation factors, or award methodology are explicitly defined, but the nature of the procurement strongly suggests a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach is anticipated,
