Bearing, ball, annular

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking sources for ball, annular bearings with the National Stock Number (NSN) 3110-01-424-2105. This pre-solicitation notice is designed to identify potential suppliers in accordance with DFARS regulations 225.7009 and 225-7016. The government currently does not own or have access to the associated technical data for these bearings. Two current potential sources have been identified: SKF USA INC with part number 104KSA3LOA06A65S299340 and MPB CORPORATION with part number HDB 104-236. Companies are requested to review the NSN and provide manufacturer location details and point of contact information. The pre-solicitation notice is set to be open from April 16, 2025, to April 21, 2025, with interested parties able to submit voluntary information to Herbert Davis at Herbert.Davis@dla.mil or by phone at 445-737-7071.

The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity appears to be open to all qualified vendors in the Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing sector (NAICS 332991). No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the notice. The document explicitly states that this is an informational request and not a formal solicitation, with no funds available for response preparation. Respondents are under no obligation, and the government is not committed to awarding a contract based on this announcement. The primary objective seems to be gathering information about potential sources for these specific ball bearings, with a focus on understanding manufacturer locations and contact details. The procurement involves the PSC category 3110 for Antifriction, Unmounted Bearings, suggesting a technical and precise procurement process.
