CM23118001 Headset- Microphone

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is seeking to procure headset-microphone equipment across five National Stock Numbers (NSNs: 5965013600454, 5965013909240, 5965014461483, 5965014461516, and 5965014628230) through a consolidated Indefinite Quantity/Indefinite Delivery contract. This consolidation is being undertaken in accordance with FAR 7.107-2 to reduce administrative lead times, decrease potential contract back-orders, and obtain more stable unit pricing. The solicitation (SPE7MX25R0048) will be available on the DLA's internet portal at http://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/ on or about January 8, 2026, with no hard copies available. The evaluation will prioritize administrative cost reduction, improved vendor relationship management, and material cost reductions through long-term production planning, with provisions to maximize small business participation including subcontracting plan requirements and small business participation evaluation factors. The pre-solicitation notice posting date is January 13, 2026, with a deadline for inquiries or questions by January 21, 2026.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation, though it has been structured to maximize small business participation despite only one small business manufacturer—David Clark Incorporated—expressing interest in the opportunity. The contract will operate on a five-year term consisting of a one-year base period followed by four optional years, with delivery orders generated through DLA's automated procurement system. While the total estimated annual contract value has been redacted from the public notice, cost simulations indicate significant government savings are projected over the five-year contract period. The consolidation approach replaces previous individual purchase arrangements with a more streamlined contracting mechanism designed to enhance pricing stability and operational efficiency for the government's headset-microphone requirements.
