About this file

This is a Market Research Questionnaire issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support division in Columbus, Ohio, regarding NSN 5950-01-511-4482 (Transformer, Power). The DLA is conducting market research to assess supplier capability and pricing for a potential fixed-price solicitation involving 18 units of this item. The approved manufacturer is EMS Development Corporation (CAGE 51435) with part numbers 433D1010-1 and PL433D1010-1. The item falls under NAICS code 334416, with FOB Origin pricing and Inspection/Acceptance at Destination. Responses must be submitted by close of business on March 30, 2026, to Contract Specialist Margaret Smith at Margaret.J.Smith@dla.mil or 614-753-3513.

The questionnaire requests comprehensive information from potential suppliers across multiple categories including company size and status (to determine small business set-asides), pricing structure and quantity sensitivity, commerciality assessment with supporting documentation, packaging and delivery capabilities, and miscellaneous requirements such as hazardous materials and precious metals content. Suppliers are asked to provide unit price estimates for the base quantity of 18 units, identify optimal quantity ranges for pricing breaks (10-35 units), and indicate willingness to quote quantity options with either pre-negotiated pricing or Economic Price Adjustment clauses. Additionally, suppliers must confirm SAM registration with appropriate NAICS coding, detail manufacturing location, delivery timelines (including partial shipment capabilities and maximum monthly quantities), and demonstrate compliance with MIL-STD-2073-1E packaging and MIL-STD-129 marking requirements.
