The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Warner Robins, Georgia, is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for the C-5 Electrical Solenoid (P/N: 920240-105). The procurement aims to find sources capable of qualifying and producing this critical linear actuator, which is essential for the operation of the C-5 aircraft's ground and flight spoilers. Currently, Kearfott Corp. is the sole approved manufacturer, holding proprietary data that limits competition; thus, the government seeks to explore any additional capabilities that may exist in the market. Interested parties must express their interest and capabilities by emailing Mobolaji Ogunsakin Jr. and Terrence Wideman no later than November 8, 2024, as this announcement serves solely for informational purposes and does not constitute a solicitation.
