About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting a sources sought inquiry for self-locking nuts under NSN 5310-014631772, classified under NAICS code 332722 for Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing. This informational notice seeks companies with manufacturing capabilities to submit Source Approval Packages (SAR) for technical review and evaluation to become approved sources for this military specification item. Companies interested in responding must be certified by the Department of Defense to access unclassified data per DoD 5220.22M, requiring submission of DD Form 2345, Military Critical Technical Data Agreement, to the Defense Logistics Information Services. All SAR submissions must be made electronically through the DoD SAFE file transmission site rather than physical CDs, with the process potentially taking over 180 days for review. The response deadline for this sources sought notice is August 4, 2025, just five days after the July 30, 2025 posting date.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and currently has four approved sources: Bristol Industries LLC (part number BH00685V9), Howmet Global Fastening Systems Inc (part numbers H54656-9 and HS4133V9), and The Boeing Company (part number HS4133V9). The notice serves to amend a previous solicitation, with SPE4A6-25-R-0276 being replaced by SPE4A6-25-R-0393 as the current solicitation number for this requirement. No budget ranges or award values are specified in this sources sought notice, and companies are advised to review the DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application for estimated forecasting requirements before submitting proposals. The government emphasizes that SARs may not be processed if determined to be cost-ineffective due to low item demand, and no funds are available to reimburse companies for preparation costs related to this announcement.

longer accepting CDs by mail. SARs must be submitted using the DoD SAFE file transmission site,
https://safe.apps.mil/. The new process streamlines processing with electronic transmission and eliminates the
need for multiple mailings of CDs. Process: To submit your SAR please send an email to: dlaavnsmallbus@dla.mil,
subject "request a SAR drop off". After we receive your email request a "request for drop off" will be returned, where
you can download your file. Include CAGE code, the NSN and the email address where you want to receive
the link. For guidance on completing a SAR package please review the Source Approval Handbook. SARs may not be
processed if it is determined that the SAR is not cost effective due to low item demand. Please review the DLA
Supplier Requirements Visibility Application :https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/ra/srva/default.aspx for estimated
forecasting requirements before submitting a SAR. Electronic transmission eliminates the need for CDs for each of
the services that manage the item (i.e. if the item is managed by the Navy and Air Force.) If you would like to see
how many services use the NSN you can download PUB LOG FLIS to see
how many services use the item and who approved sources are. You can download the PUB LOG FLIS using the

that stores and returns data with each query. This data is updated weekly. Once in the database, put in the NSN, hit
Search. Under the “Management” tab, you will see the MOE code for the number of ESAs involved. The review
process can take over 180 days from the date the SAR is received by DLA Aviation. Once a decision is made, you will
receive a formal notification letter advising you of the results.
If you have any questions, please email the DLA Aviation SAR analyst at ashley.sacolick@dla.mil.
