The effort will require a source capable of supplying all labor, materials, facilities, and equipment to produce, inspect, test, preserve, package, and ship the GCU, as well as manage supply‑chain logistics, forecast production needs, procure long‑lead‑time items, and address diminishing‑manufacturing‑source and material‑shortage issues. Vendors must hold a current license or agreement with Hamilton Sunstrand Co. and be classified under NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) with a SBA size standard of 1,250 employees. The anticipated requirement is 264 units in the first year, with unit pricing and any non‑recurring engineering costs to be determined at award. This Sources‑Sought Synopsis is for market research only; no solicitation has been issued. Responses are optional but must be submitted via the “Add Me to Interested Vendors” button and directed to 422.SCMS.AFMC.RFI@us.af.mil, referencing PR FD20302500917. The deadline for interest is 23:59 ET on 3 Feb 2025, with an estimated solicitation release in Jan 2025 and closing in Feb 2025. All small‑business categories are encouraged to participate.
