About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Construction and Equipment has issued a pre-solicitation market research survey for Life Preserver Vests under National Stock Number 4220-01-113-8665. This market research is designed to gather industry intelligence and assess supplier capabilities for an upcoming indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract not exceeding five years in duration. The government is seeking information from potential vendors regarding their manufacturing capabilities, commerciality assessments, production lead times, minimum order quantities, and compliance with commercial item definitions. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and prepared to potentially utilize Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) for order communications. The survey responses are due by September 26, 2025, and must be submitted via email to john.lieb@dla.mil, with the government emphasizing that this is purely an informational request that will not result in reimbursement for response costs.

This procurement opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and no incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation. The government anticipates procuring approximately 35 units of life preserver vests with a potential delivery timeline of 180 days from contract award. While no specific budget range or award value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase, the government has indicated this will structure as an IDIQ contract with a maximum duration of five years. The market research survey requests detailed information about vendor business classifications (small/large business, manufacturer/dealer status), production capacity, inventory levels, warranties, and previous government contracting experience. The government has made clear that this market survey does not constitute a formal solicitation and should not be interpreted as a commitment to issue future solicitations or award contracts.

Hazard Communication Standard Notice:

Effective June 1, 2015, Federal Standard No. 313-E, Material Safety

Data, Transportation Data and Disposal Data for Hazardous Materials

Furnished to Government Activities, establishes the requirement for

preparation and submission of Safety Data Sheets (SDS) in lieu of

Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) by suppliers who provide hazardous

materials to government activities.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has modified

its Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) to conform to the United Nations

Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals.

 As a result of this change, GSA revised Federal Standard No. 313-E

requiring Safety Data Sheets for classifying chemicals and communicating

the applicable information on labels.

In accordance with the revised standard after June 1, 2015:

1. Suppliers will be required to submit, to the contracting officer for

review and approval prior to award, safety data sheets consistent with

the requirements found at 29 C.F.R.  1910.1200 for hazardous materials

delivered to the Government.

2. Suppliers will also be required to submit, to the contracting officer

for review and approval prior to award, Hazardous Communication Standard

(HCS) labels in accordance with 29 C.F.R. 1910.1200 requirements or

current Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA), Federal Hazardous Substance

Act (FHSA) labels when subject to labeling requirements under those

statutes. This product labeling is required for hazardous materials

delivered to the Government.

3. Finally, suppliers must train their employees on the new safety data

sheets, hazardous communication labels, and requirements of 29 C.F.R.

1910.1200.
