VALVE, FUEL PRESSURIZING & DRAIN / NSN 2915-01-060-1265 / KC-135 AIRCRAFT

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is conducting market research for the manufacture, inspection, testing, preservation/packaging, and delivery of the fuel‑pressurizing and drain valve (NSN 2915‑01‑060‑1265) used on KC‑135 aircraft. The effort will require a source capable of providing all labor, materials, facilities, equipment, and supply‑chain management—including long‑lead‑time procurement, logistics planning, and risk mitigation—to support an estimated five‑year base‑period requirement. Unit prices will be set at award, and the contract is expected to be performance‑based. Currently approved sources are Eaton Corp. (CAGE 86090) and ITT Aerospace Controls (CAGE 73760); any other interested contractor must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) for ESA approval. DLA does not possess complete technical data on the part. Responses to this Sources‑Sought notice are voluntary and must be submitted by 15:00 EST on 29 April 2026 to Christopher.Rose@dla.mil. Submissions should include organization name, address, contact information, size/type of ownership, and a tailored capability statement with supporting documentation of corporate, financial, human‑capital, and technical resources, as well as any subcontracting or teaming arrangements. The NAICS code is 336412, there is no set‑aside, and the market research will determine whether the eventual procurement will be set‑aside for small businesses or conducted through full and open competition.
