The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA Aviation, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma) wants to buy new-manufactured F-100 engine rear fan duct assemblies (NSN 2840-01-387-2657NZ), currently 28 each. It is a firm-fixed-price supply buy with no set-aside, delivery by December 31, 2028, and offers due October 30, 2026 at 3:00 PM. The part is a critical safety item, and bidders must be an approved source before award.
Watch out for
- Source approval needed before award. This part has a qualification requirement, so a business that is not already approved must go through a lengthy Air Force review that may not finish by the deadline.
One or more qualification requirements apply to the supplies or services covered by this contract.
- Critical safety item. Jet engine parts that could cause serious harm if they fail get strict controls on quality, marking, traceability and process certifications.
This is a critical Safety Item, and direct part marking is NOT AUTHORIZED.
- New manufacture only. Surplus or used parts are not allowed, so you need real manufacturing capability and approved titanium material and processes, not just resale.
NEW MANUFACTURE ONLY Surplus Not Authorized
- Quantity may change or no award may be made. The buy is 28 now but could be 7 to 42, and the Government may award nothing, so pricing is harder to plan.
The quantity of this solicitation will be reevaluated upon receipt of the contractor's proposal.
- Cybersecurity requirements. A CMMC level and a NIST SP 800-171 score in SPRS may be required, which small shops often do not have yet.
- Cost data and non-recurring costs. The Government can require certified cost or pricing data, and a proposal that fails to provide it can be ruled ineligible.
- Rated order and long delivery window. This is a DPAS rated order, so you must prioritize it, and a delivery date as late as 31 DEC 2028 ties up capacity for a long time.
This is a rated order certified for national defense, emergency preparedness, and energy program use,
- Instructions and evaluation text missing. The middle of the solicitation was cut off, so how offers are scored and how to submit them could not be read.
