About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting market research through this sources sought notice to identify qualified parties for a potential Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for the procurement of DMG Mori and DMG Mori subsidiary hybrid horizontal machines. The requirement encompasses 15 specific machine models including CLX 450TC, CLX 550TC, CTX beta 450TC, CTX gamma 1250TC, CTX gamma 2000TC, CTX gamma 3000TC, NTX 500, NTX 1000, NTX 2000, NTX 2500/3000, NTX 3000/3000, Lasertec 3000/1500 DED Hybrid, Lasertec 3000/3000 ED Hybrid, and NLX 2500/700. The government requires a complete turn-key solution that includes equipment, materials, labor, delivery, installation, commissioning, and training services at Tinker Air Force Base. This is strictly a market research exercise and not a formal solicitation, with no evaluation criteria specified since responses are purely informational. Interested parties must submit their capability statements by November 15, 2025, via email to avnipemarketresearch@dla.mil with the subject line "ATTN: 25-40-1005," limiting responses to ten single-sided pages with minimum 10-point font.

This procurement opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the documentation. The notice does not specify award values, budget ranges, or quantities of machines to be procured under the potential BPA structure. The timeline focuses on the market research phase, with responses due by November 15, 2025, but no implementation timeline or service period duration is provided. The government emphasizes that no funds are available for response preparation and that telephone inquiries will not be accepted. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333517 (Machine Tool Manufacturing) and PSC code 3416 (Lathes), indicating the specialized nature of the precision industrial machining equipment being sought.
