Helams 96" Height

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Construction and Equipment Directorate is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for a specialized Container, Helams with a 96" height in tan color. The agency is seeking contractors capable of submitting a comprehensive technical data package, including original manufacturer's drawings for Engineering Support Activity (ESA) review. Interested contractors must contact Avril Dickerson via email or phone prior to January 8, 2025, to express interest and discuss potential submission requirements. This pre-solicitation notice is exclusively for market research purposes, and the government maintains no obligation to purchase materials as a result of this inquiry. Contractors will need to demonstrate technical capabilities and provide proprietary manufacturing drawings for comprehensive evaluation.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates an annual estimated quantity of two containers, with the current identified manufacturer being AAR Mobility Systems (CAGE Code 80298, Part Number 58204002). No specific set-aside designation is currently applied to this opportunity, suggesting it is open to a broad range of potential contractors. The procurement falls under NAICS category 332439 for Other Metal Container Manufacturing and PSC category 8145 for Specialized Shipping and Storage Containers. While no specific budget or award value is explicitly stated, the limited quantity suggests this could be a specialized, potentially high-value contract. The solicitation is currently in development, with the government seeking to gather market intelligence about potential sources capable of meeting their precise technical requirements for the Helams container.
