About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting a pre-solicitation market survey for the procurement of aircraft worm gear sets, identified by National Stock Number (NSN) 3020-015477935. This pre-solicitation notice seeks qualified suppliers capable of manufacturing these critical aerospace components under NAICS code 333612 (Speed Changer, Industrial High-Speed Drive, and Gear Manufacturing). A key contract requirement is that suppliers must obtain engineering source approval from the design control activity to maintain part quality, as the approved source retains exclusive manufacturing knowledge and technical data essential to quality maintenance. Prospective suppliers are requested to provide detailed information regarding their business size, manufacturing capabilities, commercial item status, inventory availability, delivery timelines, and packaging compliance. The response deadline for interested suppliers to submit information or qualification applications is October 28, 2025, with the contract specialist Emily McKnight (Emily.mcknight@dla.mil) serving as the primary point of contact for all inquiries and submissions.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is currently limited to the approved source Triumph Gear Systems Inc. (CAGE code 82402), which manufactures the part under number 42555-80. The solicitation does not include a disclosed award value or budget range. The requirement encompasses an initial quantity of 55 units with a potential 100 percent option for additional units. Although alternate sources are welcome to apply for qualification, they must comply with the design control activity's qualification procedures and receive approval from the cognizant Government engineering activity overseeing the part's intended aerospace application. Interested companies can submit applications and market survey responses directly to the Contract Specialist to be considered as potential approved sources for this specialized aerospace component.
