A Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) FA8124-RFI-AUG-2026 was posted from 4 August 2026 through 3 September 2026. Results from the SSS did not indicate any source other than P&W could perform the work under this contract at the prime level without the government incurring unacceptable delays and substantial duplication of costs not recoverable through competition. The government is awarding this contract under the authority of RFO 6.103-1,"Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." A Justification and Approval (J&A) for using Other Than Full and Open Competition was approved on 23 October 2026. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement to the Contracting Officer by the date listed in this notice to be considered by the agency. Respondents shall specify status as a large business, small business, small disadvantaged business, 8(a) concern, women-owned small business, economically disadvantaged women-owned small business, HUBZone small business, veteran-owned small business, or service-disabled veteran-owned small business. This synopsis does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB) or a Request for Proposals (RFP), nor does it restrict the Government to an ultimate acquisition approach. The government will not reimburse any costs associated with preparing or submitting a response to this notice. Due to security access requirements, foreign participation is not permitted at the prime contractor level. Contracting Activity: AFLCMC/LPK, 3001 Staff Dr, Tinker AFB, OK 73145.

GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS
What deserves attention before you spend bid time
These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.
This is a pre-solicitation signal. Use it to prepare, verify likely eligibility and watch for the formal solicitation or amendments before committing proposal effort.
The stored response date leaves more than ten days, but amendments and pre-response milestones can shorten the usable preparation window.
No Set aside used is recorded as the set-aside or restriction. Confirm the bidding entity actually satisfies the applicable program and size requirements before investing proposal time.
NAICS 336412 · PSC 2840 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.
GovBidFit stores the source notice text, but its length does not prove the requirements are complete. Review official attachments, clauses, amendments and Q&A before relying on the description.
The source data includes 2 public contracting contacts. Use the solicitation's stated communication rules and deadlines before contacting the buyer.
