About this file
This is a Contractor Questionnaire for a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aberdeen market survey related to the procurement of spares for the Secure Mobile Anti-Jam Reliable Tactical (SMART-T) Program. The questionnaire requests that potential contractors provide capability information to demonstrate their ability to manufacture the Visual Cleaning and Polishing Kit (Part Number 0831-1000, NSN 6070-01-734-1566). This kit is designed to clean single fiber and TFOCA 2.5mm end-faces and includes supplies such as a miniature screwdriver with magnetic bits, needle-nose pliers, and 50 replacement alignment sleeves. The Government does not possess the technical data package (TDP) for the parts, which is not available for release. This is a follow-on procurement, with a small quantity previously procured in early 2026 for training purposes.
The questionnaire consists of 13 questions designed to assess contractor qualifications and capabilities. Key areas addressed include company background and core competencies, past performance in manufacturing or supplying the 0831-1000 kit with contract details and points of contact, engineering staff qualifications for similar complexity products, experience in identifying test equipment, obsolescence management processes and tools, capability to identify alternatives for unavailable components, ability to meet U.S. Government delivery requirements, willingness to support spot buy and fixed quantity orders, product stocking capabilities, and potential supply chain risks. Contractors must provide company contact information, CAGE Code, and DUNS Number with all responses. This is a Sources Sought Announcement (SSA) for planning purposes only and is not a Request for Quote or Proposal, with no contract award intended and no cost reimbursement for response preparation.
