Cable, special purpo

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking to procure a specialized cable (NSN 6145012290032) through a solicitation for 2,000 linear feet of cable. This is a qualified products list (QPL) item, which indicates strict technical specifications must be met by potential contractors. The solicitation is structured as a Request for Quote (RFQ) and will be available electronically, with no hard copies issued. All responsible sources may submit a quote electronically, with the submission deadline set for January 3, 2025. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the notice, the requirement for a QPL item suggests a rigorous technical review process will be used to assess contractor submissions.

The solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, meaning only small businesses can compete for this contract. The cable will be delivered to W1A8 DLA Distribution within 164 days after order date. The contract falls under the NAICS category 331491 for Nonferrous Metal Rolling, Drawing, and Extruding and the PSC category 61-P for Electric Wire and Power Distribution Equipment. This procurement appears to be for a specific military or defense-related cable requirement, with technical specifications likely governing the precise manufacturing and performance characteristics of the cable. The total quantity of 2,000 linear feet suggests a moderate-volume procurement intended to support ongoing defense logistics and infrastructure needs.
