About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers for a BEACON, SONAR system (NSN 5845-014333387, Part Number DK120) under NAICS code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing). This Pre-solicitation Notice seeks capability information from organizations interested in manufacturing and supplying this underwater sound equipment. The government will evaluate potential vendors based on their ability to provide comprehensive manufacturing capabilities including component procurement, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, and shipping services, as well as their capacity to manage supply chain challenges and implement effective project management plans that meet tight program schedules, control costs, and track performance. Interested parties must submit organizational details, ownership information, and capability statements with supporting documentation demonstrating technical and management capacity by October 31, 2024. This market research will determine the final procurement strategy, which may result in either a small business set-aside or full and open competition with the possibility of multiple awards.

No set-aside has been designated for this procurement. Dukane Seacom, Inc. is currently the sole approved source of supply, though the government is actively seeking alternative vendors to expand the supplier base. The procurement requires manufacturing between 294 and 1,191 units, though specific budget values or award ranges are not disclosed in this market research notice. While no formal solicitation exists at this time, the government assumes no financial responsibility for any costs incurred in responding to this capability survey. Organizations responding should note that submission of information is purely voluntary and serves solely to inform the government's determination of market capacity and the most appropriate procurement method.
