Lppm cooling clamp

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Maritime Mechanicsburg is conducting a sources sought notice to identify potential suppliers for the LPPM Cooling Clamp, identified by NSN 1HM 5342 017079096 and Part Number 8725062. This pre-solicitation is designed to gather market intelligence from manufacturers and distributors capable of providing this hardware component for weapon systems. Any supplier that is not the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) must provide complete traceability information back to the OEM when submitting their response, as failure to include this documentation may render their submission non-responsive. The agency has issued a comprehensive market survey questionnaire that interested sources must complete and submit via email to Myron.j.Prograis@dla.mil. The deadline for survey responses is 2:00 PM EST on October 10, 2025, giving potential suppliers approximately three weeks to prepare their submissions.

This opportunity does not include any set-aside designations, making it open to all qualified suppliers regardless of size or socioeconomic status. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or provide specific award values or budget ranges for the potential procurement. The market survey seeks detailed information about pricing across different quantity ranges, delivery timeframes, inventory maintenance capabilities, and willingness to accept multi-year contracts with economic price adjustments. The survey also requests information about suppliers' manufacturing capabilities, employee count, parent company relationships, and ability to provide cost or pricing data for contracts that may exceed $800,000. DLA Maritime emphasizes that this is strictly an informational sources sought notice and not a solicitation, with no guarantee of future contract awards or funding available for response preparation.
