M88A2 Magnetic Clutch Repair Sources Sought

The U.S. Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command is seeking market research information regarding contractors capable of overhauling M88A2 magnetic clutches (NSN: 2520-01-480-7818) to Condition Code A (Like New) status. This Request for Information (RFI) is issued solely for planning and market research purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee of future contract award. Interested contractors must demonstrate expertise in rebuilding magnetic clutches used in tracked combat vehicles for heavy recovery and towing operations, with responses required to address 14 specific technical questions covering repair capabilities, component sourcing, reverse engineering potential, quality control procedures, testing methodologies, and manufacturing capacity. The evaluation will focus on contractor ability to repair government-supplied unserviceable cores while meeting DoD quality standards. All responses must be submitted electronically in PDF format to andrew.j.zielinsky.civ@army.mil by February 27, 2026 at 12:00 PM EST, with participation encouraged from entities of all sizes.

This RFI carries no set-aside designation and does not identify any potential incumbents or current contractors. No award value or budget range has been specified in this market research phase, as the government is gathering information to determine feasibility and identify qualified sources prior to any potential future solicitation. The original RFI was previously posted under solicitation number W912CH-24-R-0094 and has been reposted under W912CH25R0089. Responding companies should note that all costs associated with preparing and submitting responses are the responsibility of the interested party, and the government will not reimburse any information or administrative expenses. Non-response to this RFI will not preclude participation in any future formal Request for Proposal, which will be posted on SAM.gov if and when the government decides to proceed with procurement.
