FBO Post Title: Synopsis, 20mm Mechanical Housing NSN 1005-01-190-9802, Part Number 209F953 SUBJECT: The Government is planning to release a Request for Proposal and identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for qualification and production of the 20MM Mechanical Housing NSN 1005-01-190-9802. Item Description: NSN: 1005-01-190-9802 P/N: 209F953 The Transfer Unit Mechanical Housing NSN 1005-01-190-9802, P/N 209F953 is the transfer unit attached to the M61A1 gun and is gear-driven by the gun. The transfer unit assembly is attached to the gun feeder. Its function is to transfer live rounds from feed chute to the feeder assembly, and to transfer empty cases from the unload drive assembly into conveyor elements in the return chute. Gear-driven sprocket assemblies and guides within the transfer unit maintain positive control of the rounds and conveyor elements passing through the transfer unit. The transfer unit removes rounds from the conveyor, places the rounds into the extractor lip of the gun breech bolts, receives expended cases and unfired rounds from the gun breech bolts, and places them in the conveyor. Impediment to Competition: This item will have an Acquisition Method Code/Acquisition Method Suffix code of 3/H, in which it will be acquired, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the actual manufacturer. An AMSC of 3/H states the Government physically does not have in its possession sufficient, accurate, or legible data to purchase this part from other than the current source(s). This code is applicable only to parts under immediate buy requirements and only for as long thereafter as the deficiency is under review for resolution and appropriate recoding. This code is only assigned at the conclusion of limited screening, and it remains assigned until the full screening process resolves physical data questions and results in assignment of a different AMSC. If one source is available, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources exist, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid. INTEREST The DLA/AWB Contracting Office intends to award a competitive contract to for the manufacture of the 20mm Transfer Unit Mechanical Housing in support of the F-16 Aircraft program. Any interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement no later than closing date 29 Sep 23 by Todd.stimus@us.af.mil and Janet Harvey at janet.harvey.3@us.af.mil. DISCLAIMER This ynopsis is for informational purposes only. This is not a request for proposal. It does not constitute a solicitation, and shall not be construed as a commitment by the government. Responses in any form are not offers, and the government is under no obligation to award a contract as a result of this announcement. No funds are available to pay for preparation of responses to this announcement. Any information submitted by respondents to this technical description is strictly voluntary.
