About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is conducting market research to identify potential sources for manufacturing Filter, Fluid (NSN 1650-008913392), originally produced by PALL AEROPOWER. This sources sought notice invites qualified organizations to submit capability statements demonstrating their capacity to produce 360 filter units annually, with potential responsibilities including component part procurement, inspection, testing, preservation, packaging, and shipping. The government will evaluate respondents based on four key criteria: service scope and scale alignment, corporate resource availability, project management capabilities, and potential performance under a performance-based service acquisition contract. Interested parties must submit their responses via email to cindy.hunt@dla.mil by December 3, 2024, with detailed information about their organizational structure, technical capabilities, and potential subcontracting arrangements. No telephone inquiries will be accepted, and no feedback will be provided to submitting companies.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates that the procurement may be set aside for small businesses or conducted through full and open competition, with the possibility of multiple awards. The NAICS code for this opportunity is 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), and potential sources must be prepared to address complex supply chain management challenges, including logistics planning, production forecasting, long-lead time parts procurement, and managing diminishing manufacturing sources. While specific unit prices will be established during contract award, the estimated annual quantity is 360 units. Technical orders and qualification requirements are currently unavailable. The solicitation suggests that successful vendors will need comprehensive capabilities in manufacturing aerospace components, with a particular focus on hydraulic system filter production and the ability to manage intricate logistical and manufacturing complexities.
