About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers capable of manufacturing an Actuator, Spring Bra component (NSN 2530-01-648-5976, P/N 7A40255). The agency is seeking to establish competitive procurement options for this vehicular brake, steering, axle, wheel, and track component, which currently has limited sourcing due to data availability constraints under AMSC classification "D." Interested suppliers must demonstrate manufacturing capability equivalent to or exceeding the quality standards of the original equipment manufacturer and are required to complete a detailed market research questionnaire addressing business classification, manufacturing location, inventory capacity, commercial item status, delivery timeframes, pricing, hazardous material compliance, and packaging requirements. The evaluation will focus on suppliers' ability to provide evidence of commercial sales, current pricing documentation, and technical specifications supporting their claims. The response deadline for the market research survey is April 7, 2026, with inquiries directed to Contract Specialist Logan McLaughlin at Logan.McLaughlin@dla.mil.
This pre-solicitation notice carries no set-aside designation and does not indicate a specific award value or budget range. The current approved source is Federal Equipment Co. (CAGE 60587), which is the sole incumbent supplier. The Defense Logistics Agency is seeking quotes for a base requirement of three units with an option quantity of an additional three units, totaling six units under a Firm Fixed Price Contract structure. Companies interested in qualifying as approved sources may submit applications through the DLA Land and Maritime Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires comprehensive technical documentation demonstrating product quality equivalence to the existing approved manufacturer. Suppliers claiming commercial item status must provide supporting evidence including percentage of government versus commercial sales, current price lists, invoices, and detailed technical specifications to substantiate their eligibility for consideration.
