The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is procuring 49 diesel engines with containers through a source-restricted solicitation limited exclusively to Oshkosh Defense (CAGE 75Q65). The procurement involves NSN 2815-01-719-0308, part number 57K02043, which is a kit containing both the diesel engine (part D009R878) and a container (part 12573801). The contract includes a base quantity of 49 units with an unexercised option for an additional 49 engines, structured as a firm fixed price arrangement. The solicitation incorporates a potential reverse auction pricing technique, requiring contractors to register in the reverse auction system and complete online training to participate if an auction is conducted. The original solicitation close date of August 7, 2025, has been extended to August 25, 2025, at 11:59 PM Eastern Time, with additional amendments updating packaging specifications from Method 53 to Method 55.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is restricted solely to Oshkosh Defense as the approved source for these specific diesel engines. The solicitation does not specify award values or budget ranges, maintaining the typical government practice of withholding cost estimates during the competitive process. Key performance requirements include origin inspection and acceptance with FOB origin terms, and packaging must comply with ATPD 2232, TYPE IV specifications under MIL-STD-2073-1E standards. The total potential quantity could reach 98 diesel engines if the option is exercised, representing a significant procurement volume for military or defense applications. Performance location details are not explicitly specified in the solicitation documents, though the origin-based inspection and acceptance terms suggest delivery will occur from the manufacturer's facilities.
