About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting a sources sought market research for seat back cushions (NSN 1680-014454811 and 1680-014455740), seeking potential manufacturers for 34130P part number components. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413 and requires comprehensive manufacturing capabilities including component procurement, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, shipping, and supply chain management. Potential suppliers must submit detailed capability statements demonstrating organizational and technical competence by March 20, 2025, via email to eric.jones@dla.mil. The government will evaluate responses based on four key criteria: service scope and scale, corporate resource capacity, project management capabilities, and potential to perform under a performance-based service acquisition contract. No telephone inquiries will be accepted, and no feedback will be provided to participating companies.
Currently, Oregon Aero, Inc. (CAGE 0WY76) is the only approved source of supply for these seat back cushions. The procurement involves manufacturing 85 units of one NSN and 108 units of another, with the specific unit prices to be established during contract award. The opportunity may be set aside for small businesses or proceed through full and open competition, with the potential for multiple awards. While the current notice is a market research initiative and not a formal solicitation, it represents a preliminary step in determining the government's procurement approach. Technical orders and qualification requirements are not currently available, and the submission of capability information is entirely voluntary, with the government assuming no financial responsibility for any costs incurred by potential respondents.
