Quick Summary
The United States Air Force (USAF), specifically the 421st SCMS, is conducting a Sources Sought / Market Research effort to identify potential sources for the procurement of F100 platform spares (NSN: 8145-01-451-2435NZ, P/N: P4078842). This is to determine the feasibility of competitive procurement or small business set-aside. Responses are due by May 29, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
This Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) is a market research initiative by the USAF to identify qualified vendors capable of manufacturing and supplying critical spare parts for the F100 platform. The primary goal is to assess industry capabilities and determine the appropriate acquisition strategy for future procurement, including potential for competitive bidding or small business set-asides. This is not a solicitation, and no contract will be awarded from this notice. No funds are available for this information solicitation.
Key Requirements
Potential sources will be responsible for the procurement and manufacture of component parts, including inspection, testing, preservation/packaging, and shipping. Additional responsibilities may encompass supply chain management, logistics planning, production forecasting, long lead time parts procurement, and addressing diminishing manufacturing sources/material shortages. This requirement is for a new spares buy and does not include repair services. Respondents should be aware of potential nonrecurring engineering costs. The estimated spares requirement is for October 27, 2028.
Submission & Eligibility
Interested parties must select "ADD ME TO INTERESTED VENDORS" on SAM.gov. Responses are due by May 29, 2026. The government is seeking information from all potential sources, including Large Businesses, Small Businesses, Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a)s, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, HUBZone Small Businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses.
