Cylinder, compressed

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure 334 units of compressed gas cylinders under NSN 8120017159545 through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process. This procurement specifically requires cylinders identified as part number 804723-31 from approved source 15927, indicating a single-source requirement for this specialized equipment. The solicitation will be available only through the electronic link provided in the notice, as hard copies and additional specifications or drawings are not being made available to potential vendors. The agency has established a tight procurement timeline with quotes due by October 17, 2025, just 14 days from the posting date of October 3, 2025. All responsible sources are invited to submit quotes electronically, and timely received submissions will be considered for award.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to qualified small business concerns. The delivery destination is specified as DLA Distribution San Joaquin (W1A8) with a required delivery timeframe of 114 days after date of order (ADO). The procurement falls under NAICS code 332420 for Metal Tank (Heavy Gauge) Manufacturing and PSC category 81 for Containers/Packaging/Packing Supplies, reflecting the industrial nature of the compressed gas cylinder requirement. While no specific contract value is disclosed in the solicitation notice, the quantity of 334 units suggests a substantial procurement for military or defense logistics operations. The approved source designation and specific part number requirement indicate this is likely a replacement or replenishment order for existing equipment rather than a new capability acquisition.
