Engine, Diesel

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking to procure diesel engines with National Stock Number 2815-01-452-6354, specifically Part Number 57K4728. The pre-solicitation notice indicates this will result in a firm fixed price contract with one 1-year base period and a potential 100% option year. The solicitation is expected to be released on December 18, 2024, with a closing date of January 17, 2025, and will be available for download on SAM.gov. A unique feature of this procurement is the potential use of a reverse auction pricing technique, which will require contractors to be registered in the reverse auction system and complete mandatory online training. Technical data will be available for the procurement, and the contract will involve military packaging and preservation standards according to specified instructions.

The procurement does not have a specific small business set-aside designation and seeks to acquire a base quantity of 26 diesel engines with an option to purchase up to an additional 26 units. The contract will use Origin/Origin inspection and acceptance procedures with FOB destination terms. Contractors will need to meet specific technical requirements outlined in the Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) document, which details precise preservation methods including cleaning, drying procedures, and specific preservation of engine systems. The CAGE code for this procurement is 19207, and interested vendors must carefully review the detailed preservation and packaging requirements. While specific award value is not disclosed, the complexity of the preservation instructions and military-grade specifications suggest this is a high-value, technically sophisticated procurement targeting manufacturers with specialized diesel engine production capabilities.
