This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation number 70Z03827QB0000007 is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ).
This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect as of November 28, 2025, IAW the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO). The applicable North American Industry Classification Standard Code is 336413. The small business size standard is 1,250 employees.
This is a restricted requirement. All responsible sources may submit a quotation which shall be considered by the agency. It is anticipated that a firm-fixed price purchase order shall be awarded on a Sole Source basis to Aero Rubber Co Inc. as a result of this synopsis/solicitation.
All parts must have clear traceability to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Aero Rubber Co Inc. (Cage Code: 64665). Traceability means a clear, complete, documented, and auditable paper trail which traces each step from an OEM approved source. See attached documents titled: “Requirements – 70Z03827QB0000007,” “Terms and Conditions – 70Z03827QB0000007” and “Redacted J and A – 70Z03827QB0000007”.

The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within one calendar year after Purchase Order award.
Delivery of the added items shall continue at the same rate as the like items call for under the Purchase Order, unless the parties otherwise agree. Please note that if the USCG chooses to exercise any optional quantity modification, such modifications will be issued unilaterally to the contractor.
