The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency, is conducting a Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) to identify potential suppliers for the Noun Cylinder Assembly, specifically NSN 1650-00-226-5789, required for the T-38/F-5 aircraft. The Air Force is seeking vendors capable of providing the necessary labor, materials, and logistics for manufacturing these cylinder assemblies at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma, with an emphasis on encouraging participation from small and disadvantaged businesses to assess the feasibility of a competitive or Small Business Set-Aside procurement strategy. This initiative is crucial for maintaining the operational readiness of aircraft systems, as the components are integral to aircraft hydraulic, vacuum, and de-icing systems. Interested suppliers are encouraged to submit their business information and complete a Source Approval Request (SAR) to qualify, with all inquiries directed to 423 SCMS at 423.SCMS.AFMC.RFI@us.af.mil. This effort is not a solicitation for proposals and does not constitute a commitment to contract.
