Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Huntsville, AL, is issuing a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation to acquire specific items in support of the CH-47 CHINOOK weapon system. This acquisition is for a Single Purchase contract.
Scope of Work
The DLA is seeking to acquire parts for the CH-47 CHINOOK weapon system. An "Identification of Requirements (IOR) Synopsis" document is attached for detailed requirements. Deliveries will be made to TINKER AFB, OK, 73145-8000. Production Lead Time (PLT) with and without First Article Testing is specified in Days After Contract Award (DACA).
Key Restrictions & Source Approval
For Part Numbers 145D3500-17 and 145G0031-1, the acquisition is restricted to THE BOEING COMPANY (CAGE CODE: 77272). This restriction is due to the Government not owning the data rights required to purchase these parts from additional sources, and reverse engineering being uneconomical. All offerors must meet prequalification requirements to be eligible for award.
Firms capable of producing the required items are encouraged to identify themselves. Companies interested in competing for future solicitations are advised to seek source approval by visiting AvMC's public website: https://www.avmc.army.mil/Directorates/SRD/TechDataMgmt.
