This Request for Quotation (RFQ) solicits 20 units of steering knuckles for delivery to DLA Distribution facility W1A8 within 168 days after delivery order. The approved source for this procurement is part number 3888435C91 from manufacturer 338X5, indicating a specific technical requirement must be met. All responsible sources may submit quotes, which must be submitted electronically as hard copies are not available. The quote submission deadline is September 29, 2025, providing vendors with an 11-day response window from the posting date of September 18, 2025.

This procurement opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to certified small business entities. The contract falls under NAICS code 336350 for Motor Vehicle Transmission and Power Train Parts Manufacturing and PSC code 25 for Vehicular Equipment Components, reflecting the automotive/vehicular nature of the steering components being procured. The quantity requirement is relatively modest at 20 units, suggesting either a maintenance stock replenishment or specific operational need rather than a large-scale procurement.

No incumbent contractor information or estimated contract value ranges are provided in the solicitation notice.
