About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is preparing to solicit a long-term contract for a small arms sling with National Stock Number (NSN) 1005-01-604-0627. The agency is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of manufacturing or providing this specialized item, which requires engineering source approval by the design control activity. Currently, two approved manufacturers are Raine Inc. (Part Number: 002MART) and Blue Force Gear, Inc. (Part Number: VCAS-125-AA-CB), with potential for additional sources to qualify through specific government engineering procedures. Interested vendors must complete a detailed market survey questionnaire and spreadsheet, which must be submitted to Aria Dockham at aria.dockham@dla.mil by December 24, 2024. The procurement falls under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 332994, with a business size standard of 1,000 employees, indicating this is a full and open competition without specific set-aside restrictions.

The estimated annual demand for the small arms sling is 28,648 units, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. DLA is considering awarding an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) or Long Term Contract (LTC) with a base period of 1-3 years and up to four additional option years. The contract will require vendors to demonstrate specific manufacturing capabilities, including delivery timeframes, minimum order quantities, and potential subcontractor relationships. Potential contractors must also provide information about their electronic data interchange (EDI) capabilities, commercial item status, and greenhouse gas practices. The procurement emphasizes maintaining high-quality manufacturing standards, with a focus on preserving existing unique design capabilities and technical knowledge specific to the current approved sources.
