Hardware Kit Mechanical

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking potential suppliers for Hardware Kit Mechanical items under NSN 5340-01-682-2660, classified under NAICS code 332510 for hardware manufacturing. This pre-solicitation notice serves as a market survey to identify capable manufacturers who can produce these mechanical hardware kits to the same quality standards as the original equipment manufacturer. Interested companies must complete and submit the attached market survey questionnaire, providing detailed information about their manufacturing capabilities, inventory status, commercial sales history, delivery timelines, and pricing structure. Companies wishing to become qualified as approved sources must submit an application package through DLA's Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, demonstrating their ability to manufacture products equal to or better than the currently approved items. The market survey responses must be submitted to Contract Specialist Amber Weaver at amber.weaver@dla.mil by the close of business on October 15, 2025, with the overall due date for this opportunity listed as October 16, 2025.

This procurement opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualifying contractors regardless of business size. Defense Maritime Solutions (CAGE code 0EYA6) is currently listed as the approved source for part number H30491-02-10, indicating they are the incumbent contractor for this hardware kit. The pending Request for Proposals will seek 25 hardware kits as the base quantity, with a potential 50% quantity option that could increase the total requirement to 37 kits. The AMC/AMSC designation for this NSN is "3/Q," which relates to the item's management and sourcing classification within the defense supply system. While specific contract values are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase, the relatively small quantities suggest this is a specialized or niche hardware component procurement rather than a high-volume acquisition.
