Coffee Makers

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers of coffee makers for military dining facilities and feeding locations. This Sources Sought Notice seeks vendor feedback on industrial base capabilities, acquisition approaches, and supply chain management alternatives rather than soliciting binding proposals. Key requirements include vendors' ability to meet increased quantities and accelerated delivery timelines to support Department of Defense contingencies and emergency peacetime operations, with particular emphasis on surge capacity for early delivery and sustained production throughout contingencies. Respondents must provide detailed company information, business qualifications, relevant government and commercial experience, and pricing capabilities for three-year terms with preferences for annual price variations, Economic Price Adjustment clauses, or market-based adjustments. The response deadline is February 4, 2026, and vendors should submit information to william.yocum@dla.mil and matthew.conroy@dla.mil; no payment will be provided for responses, and proprietary information will be protected if appropriately marked.

This notice carries no set-aside designation and does not identify current incumbents or contractors. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this market research phase, nor are specific quantity requirements detailed, as the notice explicitly states that National Stock Numbers and other specifications remain subject to change. The notice falls under the Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing NAICS code (333310) and is classified as defense procurement activity. Participation in this market research does not constitute a promise of future business with the Government, and responses are intended for informational purposes only to assist DLA in developing an effective acquisition strategy.
