About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure one Mitsui Seiki HU80EX 4-Axis Machining Center ROM with comprehensive turnkey services. This pre-solicitation notice is being issued for market research purposes to identify vendors with the capability and resources to supply the equipment and related services. Key requirements include the provision of tooling, training, technical data (manuals and drawings), IUID tagging, installation, and foundation support. The procurement will be conducted under FAR 13.5 procedures on a firm-fixed price basis, with FOB Destination terms and preliminary inspection at the origin point followed by final inspection and acceptance at the destination. Interested parties must submit their capability statement by April 3, 2026, to avnipemarketresearch@dla.mil with subject line "ATTN 26-26-1000," limited to ten pages maximum with a minimum 10-point font. It is critical to note that this is a source sought notice for informational purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to award a contract.

This opportunity is designated as an 8(a) sole source procurement, though the notice contains conflicting language referencing both Machine Tool Marketing and United Grinding as potential recipients. The solicitation is intended to be unrestricted in business size, excluding only those sources not meeting full and open competition criteria post-exclusion. The notice requires respondents to identify their company's business size in terms of employee count and whether they are domestic or foreign entities to support consideration for solicitation set-aside and small business subcontracting requirements. No budget range or award value is specified in the pre-solicitation notice. The quantity being procured is limited to a single machining center unit, with the government emphasizing that no funds are available to compensate respondents for their submissions and that all information provided is strictly voluntary.
