About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking potential manufacturers for a disc brake shoe with National Stock Number (NSN) 2530-15-027-5727. Currently, IVECO Defence Vehicles APA and Brembo SPA are the only approved sources for this item, with a procurement classification of "3/D" indicating the parts must be obtained directly from manufacturers. The agency is conducting a sources sought notice to identify additional potential manufacturers who can produce these brake shoe components. Interested companies must submit a comprehensive Source Approval Request (SAR) package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request Program, demonstrating their ability to manufacture the product at or equal to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) quality standards. The deadline for submitting potential source information is February 4, 2025, with all submissions to be sent directly to Contract Specialist Paul Kelley via email.

No specific set-aside designations are currently in place for this procurement, and the current notice does not specify a precise award value or quantity of brake shoes required. The procurement is specifically focused on the Motor Vehicle Steering and Suspension Components manufacturing sector, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of 2530 for vehicular brake components. The agency has determined that reverse engineering the brake shoes is not economically feasible, which limits the potential sources to those who can demonstrate precise manufacturing capabilities. The current procurement strategy suggests a potential sole-source or limited-source procurement, with IVECO Defence Vehicles and Brembo SPA serving as the primary approved manufacturers. Companies interested in becoming an approved source must thoroughly document their technical capabilities and manufacturing processes through the SAR program outlined on the DLA Land and Maritime website.
