About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has issued a Sources Sought Notice for market research to identify companies capable of manufacturing or legitimately obtaining pressure indicators under NSN 6620-01-271-0711. The agency is seeking 75 units of the INDICATOR, PRESSURE item with part number 536849-15, originally manufactured by Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation. This is strictly an informational market research exercise and not a formal solicitation, with no commitment from the government to award any contract or provide compensation for response preparation. Interested parties must demonstrate their qualifications to manufacture or obtain these supplies and submit responses via email to Linda.chatman@dla.mil and Christy.pratt@dla.mil. The response deadline has been updated to August 28, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, representing an extremely tight turnaround from the August 27, 2025 posting date.

This opportunity operates under no set-aside designation, making it available to all qualified contractors regardless of small business status. Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation appears to be the original equipment manufacturer for this pressure indicator component, which falls under NAICS code 334519 for Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing. The solicitation number SPE4A5-25-Q-0938 will govern any future procurement actions, with the items designated under Weapon System Designator Code 04F. The quantity requirement is set at 75 units, though no contract value or budget range has been disclosed in this preliminary market research phase. The contracting office is located at 6090 Strathmore Road, Richmond, VA 23237, and the notice includes provisions for Source Approval Requests (SARs) through the DoD SAFE file transmission system for items not currently under open solicitation.

Source Approval Requests

 If there is an open solicitation for a national stock number for which you want to submit a SAR, please submit it directly to the buyer noted on the solicitation. (NOTE: This applies to open solicitations only). SAR’s will not be evaluated for items that are already designated as fully competitive such as those items coded AMSC “G” and described by drawings and specifications. If you are submitting a SAR for a NSN with no open solicitation we are no longer accepting CDs by mail. SARs must be submitted using the DoD SAFE file transmission site, https://safe.apps.mil/. The new process streamlines processing with electronic transmission and eliminates the need for multiple mailings of CDs. New Process: To submit your SAR please send an email to: dlaavnsmallbus@dla.mil, subject "request a SAR drop off". After we receive your email request a "request for drop off" will be returned, where you can download your file. Include CAGE code, the NSN and the email address where you want to receive the link. For guidance on completing the SAR package please review the Source Approval Handbook. SARs may not be processed if it is determined that the SAR is not cost effective due to low item demand. Please review the DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application: https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/ ra/srva/default.aspx for estimated forecasting requirements before submitting a SAR.

Electronic transmission eliminates the need for CDs for each of the services that manage the item (i.e. if the item is managed by the Navy and Air Force.) If you would like to see how many services, use the NSN you can download PUB LOG FLIS to see how many services use the item and who approved sources are. You can download the PUB LOG FLIS using the instructions at: FLISSearchDownloadInstructions.pdf The PUB LOG FLIS executable file connects to a secure server that stores and returns data with each query. This data is updated weekly. Once in the database, put in the NSN, hit Search. Under the “Management” tab, you will see the MOE code for the number of ESAs involved. The review process can take over 180 days from the date the SAR is received by DLA Aviation. Once a decision is made, you will receive a formal notification letter advising you of the results.

If you have any questions, please email the DLA Aviation SAR analyst at dlaavnsmallbus@dla.mil.
