About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Strategic Materials published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on April 12, 2023 for the storage, maintenance, and rotation of its inventory of six types of polyacrylonitrile carbon fibers produced solely by Toray Industries, Inc. in Japan. These carbon fiber types, which include T800H, T1000G, M46J, and the ultra-high modulus fibers M55J, M60J-6K, and M60J-3K, are critical materials for advanced composites and were awarded on a sole source basis due to being uniquely available from Toray. Contract number SP8000-23-C-0008 for an unknown value was awarded to an unknown vendor on March 27, 2023 to manage the National Defense Stockpile inventory of these carbon fibers.
