About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is seeking potential sources for a Hotbox Containment item with National Stock Number (NSN) 2540-01-568-2561. The pre-solicitation notice indicates a complex procurement process focused on sourcing a specialized component with strict manufacturing requirements. Currently, three approved sources exist: Force Engineering (CAGE 06DJ7), Armorworks Enterprises (CAGE 3KHA7), and Shockride LLC (CAGE 4YJ37). The solicitation requires potential manufacturers to demonstrate their ability to produce the item to the same or higher quality as the Original Equipment Manufacturer through a comprehensive Source Approval Request (SAR) package. Interested companies must submit their detailed technical information and manufacturing capabilities directly to Contract Specialist Karin Wilson by March 13, 2025, with the goal of qualifying as an approved source for this contract.
The procurement does not have a specific small business set-aside designation and is suitable for competitive acquisition. The anticipated contract structure involves an Indefinite Delivery Contract with a three-year base period and potential for two additional one-year option periods. Manufacturers must meet stringent DoD-STD-100 standards and demonstrate they can produce the item according to precise technical specifications. The contract will utilize a delivery order mechanism for purchasing the item on an as-needed basis, with the government reserving the right to evaluate and select sources based on technical competence, manufacturing capabilities, and quality assurance. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the procurement appears focused on ensuring a robust and qualified supply chain for a critical military equipment component.
