AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Air Force, through the 423rd SCMS at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers for the new manufacture of a regulating valve, part number 60790-4, with NSN 4820-01-182-9736, intended for use on the B-1 platform. This effort is a Sources Sought Synopsis under FAR Part 10, not a solicitation or procurement action, and no contract will be awarded based on responses. The Government seeks information from all types of businesses—including small businesses, disadvantaged businesses, veteran-owned firms, HUBZone firms, and women-owned small businesses—to assess the availability of capable sources and evaluate whether the requirement can be set aside for small business competition. Respondents must demonstrate the ability to handle full-scale manufacturing, including component procurement, inspection, testing, packaging, shipping, and managing supply chain challenges such as diminishing manufacturing sources and long-lead parts. The response deadline is August 11, 2026, and interested parties must use the official button to be added as an interested vendor; direct requests for a solicitation will not be answered. The North American Industry Classification System code is 336413 with a size standard of 1,250 employees, indicating the government is open to both small and large firms. All activities will be conducted in Central Standard Time, and the performance location is Tinker AFB, OK, with no funding currently available for this market research phase. The information collected will inform the development of the acquisition strategy, potentially including splitting the requirement by airframe, and will not result in immediate procurement. Responses must be submitted through the designated workflow email, and no formal proposal or pricing is required at this stage.
