59-radio frequency man

DLA Maritime Mechanicsburg, part of the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, is seeking qualified suppliers for a Radio Frequency Man component (NSN 7HH 5996 016078996, P/N 60083555-000) classified under NAICS 335999 (Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing) and PSC 5996 (Amplifiers). This is a Sources Sought Notice intended to assess market capability rather than solicit formal proposals, and interested suppliers must submit a completed market survey by 2:00 PM EST on April 23, 2026, via email to Anthony.Melenchek@dla.mil. Key requirements include providing complete traceability information back to the Original Equipment Manufacturer for any non-OEM sources, with failure to provide such documentation potentially rendering offers non-responsive. The market survey requests detailed information on product availability, pricing, delivery capabilities, manufacturing capacity, commercial status, and compliance with federal contracting requirements across 18 primary questions plus six additional commercial item questions. Suppliers claiming commercial item status must provide supporting documentation such as proof of commercial sales, marketplace availability evidence, warranties, and price lists or catalogs.

This notice carries no set-aside designation and is informational only, with no binding commitment from the government to award a contract or obligation to pay for response preparation. The approved design cage code is held by L3 Technologies INC (CAGE 06401), indicating this company as the Original Equipment Manufacturer. The notice does not specify contract value, award quantity, or production timeline, as the primary objective at this stage is to identify capable suppliers and understand available options in the marketplace rather than to execute an immediate procurement action. No funds are currently allocated for this initiative, and all information submitted by respondents is strictly voluntary and will not establish any contractual obligations on the government's part.
