The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA Aviation, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma) wants 2 to 8 combustion cases (an aircraft engine part, NSN 2840-01-262-0495PN, KC-135 engine). The solicitation letter is addressed to CFM International, the engine maker, and says the requirement is sole sourced to that company. Delivery is requested to Tinker AFB by 15 Dec 2028.
Watch out for
- Sole-source to the engine maker. The letter is addressed to CFM International and says the requirement is sole sourced, so a small business that is not CFMI is unlikely to be awarded this order even though the notice says no set-aside.

- Order placed against another company's BOA. The order is issued against a Basic Ordering Agreement held by CFM International, so only that agreement holder can take it.

Requested Delivery: On or Before 15 Dec 2028
- CEMS reporting and government system access. The contractor must get AF Portal and CEMS access (with background checks) and report each tracked part by the next business day, which adds compliance work.
CEMS reporting should be accomplished by contractor no later than Close of Business of the next business day
- Thin public notice text. The SAM.gov description only says to see the presolicitation and attached solicitation, and the place of performance field is blank.
