These components are subject to strict regulations and must meet specific drawings and specifications. The agency anticipates awarding a long-term contract, with potential five-year periods, to supply these parts. Offerors should be aware of export controls on technical data associated with these items. The solicitation will be available in DIBBS around August 23, 2024, and responses are expected within a year. Interested parties should contact Tracy Roberts for more information.
