Quick Summary

The United States Air Force (430th SCMS) is conducting market research via a Sources Sought Synopsis to identify potential sources for the spares procurement of a specific Turbine Nozzle (NSN: 2840-01-632-5800OK, P/N: 6029T45G14). This effort aims to determine if the requirement can be competitively bid or set aside for small businesses. This is not a solicitation, and no contract will be awarded. Responses are requested by June 21, 2026.

Scope of Work

The requirement involves the procurement and manufacture of component parts, inspection, testing, preservation/packaging, and shipping for one unit of the specified turbine nozzle. Potential sources may also be responsible for comprehensive supply chain management, including logistics planning, forecasting production requirements, managing long-lead time parts, and addressing diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortage issues. This is for a new spares buy, with no repair requirement.
