Things to watch (6)
From the version posted Oct 13, 2026.
- Serious: Restricted to one named source. Only Triumph Gear Systems Inc. (CAGE 82402) is named as the qualified source. The text does not say what other firms may send or how to qualify; ask the contracting officer.
- Serious: CMMC Level 2 self-assessment required before award. Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 (Self) means a self-assessment against the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) SP 800-171 security controls, with the result entered in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS). Without it you are not eligible for award.
- Worth checking: Landing gear data and approvals. The engineering notes are on Air Force drawing 201416605, which the Engineering Data List says is furnished with the solicitation. Deviations from the drawing package go to the Government for approval.
