Indicator, Range

The Army Contracting Command-Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA) is conducting a market survey to identify potential contractors for producing a Range Indicator with National Stock Number 5840-01-642-5867, which is a component of the 60mm Mortar system. The survey aims to assess industry capabilities, interest, and capacity for manufacturing this item, with the Army already possessing the Technical Data Package for production. Potential vendors are required to complete the marked fields in the attached market survey document and submit their responses via email to Steven Klemmer by May 1, 2025, at 3:00 P.M. EST. The market research effort follows Federal Acquisition Regulation 15.201(e) guidelines and is designed to gather information about potential offerors' manufacturing capabilities, production lead times, and qualifications. Importantly, this is a preliminary market research step and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee of contract award.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside for small businesses, though the market survey suggests potential opportunities for both small and large businesses. The potential contract appears to be structured for a five-year period, with mandatory First Article Testing required for the selected vendor. While specific award values are not disclosed, the survey requests vendors to provide current pricing information and minimum order quantities. The Range Indicator will be procured under the Navigational, Measuring, Electromedical, and Control Instruments Manufacturing NAICS category (33451) and the Radio and Television Communication Equipment PSC category (5820). Vendors will need to demonstrate robust quality management systems and provide evidence of prior government contract experience to be considered competitive in this procurement process.
