About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking to procure an exhaust manifold (NSN 2815-011888639, P/N 16500287) through this pre-solicitation notice. The government is conducting a market survey to identify potential suppliers capable of manufacturing this component, with responses due by March 23, 2026. Prospective contractors must demonstrate their ability to comply with either FAR Part 12 commercial item requirements or FAR Part 15 non-commercial contracting provisions, and must provide comprehensive documentation including pricing, delivery timeframes, technical specifications, and information regarding hazardous material content and packaging compliance. The evaluation will consider factors such as manufacturing capabilities, inventory availability, minimum order quantities, price competitiveness, and willingness to accept Firm Fixed Price contracts with F.O.B. Origin terms. Companies interested in responding should submit completed market survey questionnaires to Contract Specialist Emily Castle at Emily.mcknight@dla.mil by the March 23, 2026 deadline.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and currently recognizes Fairbanks Morse, LLC (CAGE 7PZX0) as the sole approved source for this item. The government is seeking to procure 2 units with a 100 percent option quantity of 4 additional units, though specific award value information is not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. Alternative suppliers may apply for approval through the DLA Weapons Support (Columbus) Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program by submitting a comprehensive application package that demonstrates their product meets or exceeds the quality standards of the original equipment manufacturer. The AMC/AMSC code designation of "3D" indicates this is a second or subsequent acquisition where technical data is not readily available for competitive solicitation, necessitating the current market survey approach. Interested parties should note that the burden of proof lies with prospective contractors to document and substantiate that their product is equal to or superior to the currently approved Fairbanks Morse offering.
