- Description
- 1. Description of Intent: This is not a solicitation but rather a Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) to determine potential sources for information and planning purposes only. The purpose of this Sources Sought is to conduct market research to determine if responsible sources exist, to assist in determining if this effort can be competitive and/or a total Small Business Set-Aside. The proposed North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code is 336413 which has a corresponding Size standard of 1250 number of employees. The Government will use this information to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement. The Government is interested in all small businesses to include 8(a), Service- Disabled Veteran-Owned, Hubzone, and Women-Owned small business concerns. The government requests that interested parties respond to this notice if applicable and identify your small business status to the identified NAICS code. Additionally, please provide any anticipated teaming arrangements, along with a description of similar services offered to the Government and to commercial customers for the past three years. Any responses involving teaming agreements should delineate between the work that will be accomplished by the prime and the work accomplished by the teaming partners. �General Information: To identify the future qualification sources who may have potential solutions to virtually IUID mark Secondary Power Systems components using optical scanning. This scanning would include a methodology for a device to utilize scanning technologies (similar to fingerprinting) and part recognition. This technology would need to recognize parts before and after they experience harsh environments (which may include, but are not limited to excessive heat, cleaning processes, thermal cycling, minor abrasion). The technology shall also have an ability to communicate with Government applications in the future to transmit the unique data to Government data systems to help identify the components all over the world. In the DoD, timing is of the essence, the optical scanner shall be fast and easy-to-use for mechanics and technicians. It shall also be safe to all personnel utilizing the equipment. The Government will use this information to determine the best process for uniquely identifying parts. 2. This SSS is for multiple p/n�s and NSN�s: P/N� � � � � � � � � � � � � �Description� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �NSN 170950-100B� � � � � � HOUSING, COMBUSTION� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-523-7610 3600471-1� � � � � � � � �LINER,COMBUSTION CH� � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-476-4185 3615880-1� � � � � � � � �ROTOR,TURBINE,NONAI� � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-284-3967 364919-1� � � � � � � � � �CASE/NOZZLE ASSY,TURBINE� � � � � � � �2835-00-298-9471 364919-4� � � � � � � � � �CASE/NOZZLE ASSY,TURBINE� � � � � � � �2835-01-465-8293 364955-13� � � � � � � � �PLENUM,TURBINE� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-003-3678 366820-4� � � � � � � � � �HOUSING,ANTIFRICTIO� � � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-474-8756 367136-3� � � � � � � � � �CLUTCH,POSITIVE,NONVEHICULAR� � � 3010-01-315-6154 367646-3� � � � � � � � � � AXIAL, CONTAINMENT� � � � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-370-7427 367741-1� � � � � � � � � � CHAMBER,COMBUSTION,� � � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-310-8800 367741-2� � � � � � � � � � CHAMBER,COMBUSTION,� � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-473-2612 3830077-2� � � � � � � � � CHAMBER,COMBUSTION� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-166-1275 3830077-5� � � � � � � � � CHAMBER,COMBUSTION� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-166-1275 3842062-1� � � � � � � � � ROTOR,TURBINE,NONAI� � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-284-3967 3846004-4� � � � � � � � � SCROLL,TURBINE� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-011-5718 3846004-9� � � � � � � � � SCROLL,TURBINE� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-011-5718 3846019-7� � � � � � � � � PLENUM ASSEMBLY,TUR� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-049-8502 4502902� � � � � � � � � � �WHEEL,COMPRESSOR, � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � NONAIRCRAFT GAS TURBINE� � � � �2835-01-459-6002 5003714� � � � � � � � � � �HOUSING,GEARBOX, � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �TURBINE ENGINE� � � � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-055-6557 5004052� � � � � � � � � � � IMPELLER,TORQUE CONVERTER� � � � �2835-01-055-6562 698249-1� � � � � � � � � �DISK AND HUB,COMPRESSOR, � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �NONAIRCRAFT GAS� � � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-111-8033 698250-1� � � � � � � � � � DISK AND HUB,COMPRESSOR, � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �NONAIRCRAFT GAS� � � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-111-8037 892327-1� � � � � � � � � � �SUPPORT,TURBINE COM� � � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-110-6858 899633-2� � � � � � � � � � �PLENUM,COMPRESSOR� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-00-473-1360 899658-1� � � � � � � � � � �CASE, COMBUSTION CHA� � � � � � � � � � � 2835-00-110-9150 899658-2� � � � � � � � � � �CASE, COMBUSTION CHA� � � � � � � � � � � 2835-00-110-9150 968808-2� � � � � � � � � � � PLENUM HALF ASSEMBLY� � � � � � � � � � �2835-00-242-1468 968808-3� � � � � � � � � � � PLENUM HALF ASSEMBLY� � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-235-5192 976768-2� � � � � � � � � � � DIFFUSER ASSY, COMP� � � � � � � � � � � � �2835-01-444-0026 977210-1� � � � � � � � � � � VANE ASSEMBLY,COMPR� � � � � � � � � � � 2835-00-476-7768 977307-2� � � � � � � � � � � VANE ASSEMBLY, FAN, N� � � � � � � � � � � � 2835-01-444-6417 The Air Force is issuing this sources sought synopsis as a means of conducting market research to identify parties having an interest in and the resources to support this requirement.
