Request for Interested Manufacturers / C-5 Rotary Hand Pump (NSN 4320-00-490-7424UC)

The Defense Logistics Agency – Aviation (DLA/Aviation) is conducting market research to identify manufacturers capable of qualifying and producing the C‑5/C‑17 Rotary Hand Pump (NSN 4320‑00‑490‑7424 UC, Part RR34120B, Lockheed Part 4H940004‑105A). The pump is a manually operated, low‑pressure hydraulic component essential for replenishing hydraulic reservoirs in flight on the C‑5 Galaxy and C‑17 aircraft. The Government lacks a complete manufacturing data package and, because the item is proprietary to the original equipment manufacturer, commercial substitutions would require major modifications and could compromise system safety. DLA/Aviation intends to award a sole‑source contract to Lear Romec Division of Crane Co. (CAGE 51663), the only source possessing the required technical data and expertise. Interested parties may submit a statement of interest and capability to the point of contact, Robert Berg (robert.berg.9@us.af.mil), no later than 02 December 2025, 17:00 EST. This Sources‑Sought notice is for informational purposes only, does not constitute a solicitation, and no funds are available for response preparation. The procurement will be conducted under Other‑Than‑Full‑and‑Open Competition per FAR 6.302‑1, as only one responsible source exists.
