About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is seeking sources capable of manufacturing liquid compensators (NSN 6680-010674552) through this pre-solicitation notice posted on February 3, 2026, with responses due by February 23, 2026. Interested manufacturers must demonstrate their capability to produce this item and submit source approval requests through the DoDSafe electronic file transmission system rather than traditional mail submission. The submission process requires manufacturers to email dlaavnsmallbus@dla.mil with the subject line "Request a SAR drop off," providing their CAGE code, NSN, and email address to receive a DoDSafe link for uploading their Source Approval Request (SAR) documentation. Contractors should review the Source Approval Handbook for package completion guidance and consult the DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application to assess forecasting requirements and cost effectiveness prior to submission. The review and approval process typically exceeds 180 days from receipt by DLA Aviation, after which a formal notification letter with the final decision will be issued.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting eligibility to small business concerns. Three currently approved sources for this item are Honeywell International Inc. (CAGE 94580), Lavi Systems, Inc. (CAGE 0ADZ9), and FirstMark Aerospace Corp. (CAGE 3BMV1), though the pre-solicitation is seeking to expand the industrial base with additional qualified manufacturers. The government is procuring a quantity of eight compensators, though no specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. Contractors meeting the qualifications are invited to submit their capability information and documentation through the formal SAR process to be considered for inclusion as an approved source for this national stock number.
