About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is conducting a market survey for the procurement of battery storage items, specifically NSN 6140-01-400-2901, manufactured under part number 172BS112-1. This pre-solicitation notice seeks information from potential suppliers regarding their capability to manufacture or supply this rechargeable battery product to support a pending formal solicitation. Key contract requirements include compliance with STD-COM packaging standards, RFID requirements, and firm fixed price bidding on an F.O.B. Origin basis. The government will evaluate responses based on business size classification, manufacturer or dealer status, inventory availability, delivery timelines, pricing structures, commerciality determination, and hazardous materials compliance. Interested parties must submit their market survey responses to Contract Specialist Logan McLaughlin at Logan.McLaughlin@dla.mil by April 9, 2026, which represents a six-day response window from the posted date of April 3, 2026.

This pre-solicitation notice carries no set-aside designation and identifies ACME AEROSPACE, INC (CAGE code 6HAR8) as the currently approved source for this battery item. The government intends to acquire a base quantity of 1,701 units with a potential option to increase the order to 3,402 units (100% option expansion), with pricing and award values to be determined following the market survey evaluation. The DLA notes that alternative manufacturers may apply for approved source status through the Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, requiring submission of comprehensive technical documentation demonstrating manufacturing capability equal to or superior to the current OEM standard. Organizations interested in qualifying as approved sources must demonstrate product equivalency or superiority and submit their SAR applications through the DLA Land and Maritime website portal dedicated to the alternate offer program.
