About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Subsistence is conducting market research on food transporters and related components through a Sources Sought Notice. The procurement concerns approximately 50 items identified by National Stock Numbers, including food transporters, insulated carriers, ice storage chests, liquid dispensers, food containers, covers, pans, and associated assembly components. Vendors must provide detailed information across six categories: items and materials (including cost drivers, foreign components, and manufacturing capabilities), delivery capabilities (including direct vendor delivery with FOB Destination terms and 30-day delivery requirements), pricing stability and five-year contract pricing with potential Economic Price Adjustment formulas, quality assurance and warranty practices, company description and business classification, and additional comments. This is a Sources Sought Notice for market research purposes only, not a formal solicitation for proposals, and responses must be submitted by email to Madelyn.Kane@dla.mil and Matthew.Conroy@dla.mil. The response deadline is February 17, 2026, and vendors should note that participation in this market research does not constitute a commitment for future business.
This opportunity does not utilize a set-aside designation and includes no identified incumbent contractors or award values at this stage. The government will use vendor responses solely for market research to inform a future solicitation, and no payment will be made for responses provided. Key contract considerations identified include the requirement for FOB Destination delivery terms with a 30-day delivery requirement and surge capacity capabilities. Pricing discussions indicate potential Economic Price Adjustment formulas that may allow annual adjustments up to 10 percent, likely tied to the Producer Price Index. The opportunity is classified under NAICS 333241 (Food Product Machinery Manufacturing) and PSC code 7360 (Sets, Kits, Outfits and Modules, Food Preparation and Serving).
