The Department of the Air Force is seeking sources for the repair and overhaul of Electro-Mechanical Actuators under NSN 1680-01-148-4142. This Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) is part of a market research effort to identify potential suppliers, including small and disadvantaged businesses, capable of providing the necessary labor, materials, and logistics to deliver serviceable units. The repair requirement estimates a minimum of 25 and a maximum of 40 units, with all work taking place at Tinker AFB, OK.
Companies interested in participating must respond to the SSS to be considered, although this is not a solicitation or commitment for a contract. The SSS outlines expectations, including supply chain management and technical data needs. Interested parties must complete a Source Approval Request (SAR) package and may request technical orders and engineering drawings for compliance.
The document emphasizes the government’s aim to strategically procure services while fostering a competitive environment, particularly for small businesses. Responses should include detailed business information per specified guidelines, with the assurance that the information requested is exploratory and not binding to the government.
