CYLINDER ASSEMBLY,A

The government is seeking qualified sources for the Actuator Assembly, NLG (NSN 1650‑01‑417‑9655, P/N 16VH203‑4) used in the F‑16 landing‑gear system. Offerors must notify the appropriate Small Business Office or contracting officer of their intent to qualify, certify that they possess or have access to the necessary manufacturing, inspection, testing, packaging and storage facilities, and make those resources available for government evaluation. A complete data package—including all procedures, drawings, specifications and change notices—must be verified and, if requested, provided to the government. Qualification is mandatory before award; once all requirements are met the offeror will be listed as an approved source, though approval does not guarantee a contract. Offerors must also submit, at their own expense, a pre‑award qualification article that conforms to drawing 16VH203‑4 for form, fit, and function testing, with results communicated within 120 days. Small‑business joint ventures must submit the required FAR representations for the applicable small‑business categories, and those meeting specific waiver criteria may request a partial or full waiver of the qualification requirements. The solicitation anticipates a firm‑fixed‑price (or fixed‑price with economic price adjustment) contract, with prices held firm for 120 days. Respondents must review the government’s Required Delivery Schedule (RDS), propose an achievable delivery timeline based on internal production lead time, and be prepared for possible negotiation of an updated schedule. NAICS 336413 applies (size standard 1,250) and a qualification package is required, except for ARKWIN and LOCKHEED. Compliance with FAR clauses 52.203‑11, 52.203‑18, and 52.204‑3 is mandatory.
