About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting market research to identify alternative manufacturers and approved sources for a Filter Element Fluid (NSN 4330-01-662-2127, Part Number MC-320002). Interested contractors must demonstrate their capability to manufacture this component to equal or superior quality standards compared to the current approved source through submission of a Source Approval Request (SAR) package containing comprehensive technical data. The evaluation will focus on a contractor's ability to document and prove that their product meets or exceeds the quality standards of the currently approved manufacturer. Potential sources should contact Zachary Mullins at Zachary.mullins@dla.mil with manufacturer location information and points of contact. The response deadline for this pre-solicitation notice is April 7, 2026, providing a one-week window for interested parties to submit initial source information and demonstrate their interest in pursuing qualification as an approved supplier.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is currently fulfilled by Filter-Fab Corporation (CAGE Code 56NK5). The Defense Logistics Agency has estimated an annual demand of 1,819 units for this filter element, classified under NAICS code 333998 (All Other Miscellaneous General Purpose Machinery Manufacturing) and PSC code 4330 (Centrifugals, Separators, and Pressure and Vacuum Filters). While specific award values are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase, the anticipated volume and nature of demand suggest a potential long-term contract opportunity. Interested contractors must apply through the formal DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request Program, which requires submission of detailed technical data packages demonstrating manufacturing equivalency or superiority to qualify as an approved alternative source.
