The U.S. Air Force is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) regarding the procurement of spares for aircraft, specifically the F-15 model. This effort targets identifying potential sources capable of manufacturing and supplying float valves (NSN 2915-01-116-0968 RK) for Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma. The government is seeking responses from a diverse range of businesses, including large, small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned companies, to assess the feasibility of competitive procurement or potential small business set-asides. Entities interested in participating are requested to provide essential business information, such as company name, CAGE code, contacts, and ownership status, in response to this SSS. No contract will be awarded based on this inquiry, as it solely aims to inform the government’s acquisition strategy, and participants must be prepared to independently acquire necessary technical data if provided data is limited. This initiative underscores the Air Force's commitment to ensuring a robust procurement process while focusing on expanding opportunities for various business sectors.

The United States Air Force, specifically the 424th Supply Chain Management Squadron at Tinker Air Force Base, has issued a Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) for market research.

The government is interested in all business sizes and types, including various small business classifications. Potential sources must be capable of furnishing all labor, materials, facilities, and equipment for manufacturing, inspection, testing, preservation/packaging, and shipping, with an estimated spares requirement of 31 units. This is a new spares buy with no repair requirement. Interested parties must complete a Source Approval Request (SAR) package and provide business information by July 30, 2025.
