About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground is conducting market research to identify potential sources for procuring one CNC Router through a Sources Sought Notice. This is not a solicitation but rather a survey to locate qualified vendors capable of meeting the government's minimum requirements, which are detailed in an attached "Salient Characteristics" document. Interested parties must respond by July 15, 2025, providing line-by-line responses to specifications, market research quotes with fair pricing estimates, and documentation of past performance on similar contracts. The evaluation will assess the extent to which vendors can meet each specification, their business classification and small business status, and their manufacturing capabilities. Contract performance will take place at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, with delivery required no later than five months after contract award.

This opportunity is set aside for Total Small Business under NAICS code 333991 (Power-Driven Handtool Manufacturing) with a size standard of 950 employees, though the notice contains an apparent discrepancy referencing a 900-employee standard. The government is particularly encouraging participation from small disadvantaged businesses including Section 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, Women-Owned Small Business, and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business enterprises. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are mentioned in the notice. While no specific budget range or award value is disclosed, vendors must provide fair market pricing estimates as part of their market research responses. The proposed solicitation number is W911QX-25-QA060, and responses must be submitted within five business days of the July 8, 2025 posting date.
