Description

The Department of the Air Force is conducting market research for five T-38 CFS 505 drill fixture kits, each comprising a precision drill fixture plate, accessories, and a Pelican Model 1400 transport case with custom three-layer, closed-cell polyethylene foam inserts. The fixtures must be manufactured to drawing configuration JCG230321 using suitable high-strength tool steel, with heat treatment, stress relief, corrosion-resistant coating, and precision machining—including multi-axis milling, wire EDM, and surface grinding—to achieve tolerances as tight as ±0.001 inches on critical bores. Pick-and-pluck foam is not acceptable; the foam layers must have component-specific pockets, labels, and lifting tabs. The notice seeks capability statements, not contract offers. Respondents should describe their company, relevant in-house equipment and machining experience, up to three similar projects completed within the last three years, ability to deliver five assemblies within 90 days of award (or provide a realistic lead time), and a non-binding cost estimate. Specialty metals must meet the stated domestic or qualifying allied-country sourcing requirements. A first article inspection to AS9102 and a certified CMM dimensional calibration sheet are required before production unless an exception applies for the original manufacturer or a firm that has previously made this exact fixture.
