The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is soliciting quotes for electrical headsets under National Stock Number 5965016994988 through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) process. This procurement falls under the Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing category and is open to all responsible sources. The solicitation was posted on November 6, 2025, with quotes due by November 17, 2025, allowing potential bidders approximately eleven days to prepare and submit their responses. All quotes must be submitted electronically, and specifications, plans, or drawings are not available through the solicitation notice. Interested contractors should access the complete RFQ details through the provided link, as hard copies are not being distributed. The evaluation criteria and specific technical requirements will be outlined in the full solicitation document available electronically.

This is an unrestricted procurement with no set-aside designations applied. The requirement encompasses 181 units of electrical headsets to be delivered to DLA Distribution facility W1A8 within 168 days from the award date. An approved source has been identified as NSN reference 97427 1680ALSE118-2, though this does not limit competition to that supplier. The delivery timeline of approximately 5.6 months provides contractors with a reasonable window for fulfillment. Given the standardized nature of this procurement through the General Services Administration's supply chain, pricing and past performance on similar items will likely be significant evaluation factors. Qualified manufacturers and distributors of electrical headsets meeting the specified national stock number requirements are encouraged to submit quotations.
