Nut, union

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is soliciting quotes for NSN 4730009143158 union nuts through a Request for Quotation (RFQ). This procurement falls under the Fabricated Pipe and Pipe Fitting Manufacturing category (NAICS 332996) and is classified as Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings (PSC 47). All responsible sources are eligible to submit quotes, which must be delivered electronically by the December 1, 2025 deadline. The solicitation indicates that timely received quotes will be considered for evaluation, though specific evaluation criteria details are not elaborated in this notice. Hard copies of the solicitation are unavailable; all relevant documentation, including digitized drawings and Military Specifications and Standards, must be retrieved or ordered electronically. Contractors should note the compressed timeline for this procurement.

This is a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity, meaning only small businesses are eligible to compete for the contract. The requirement calls for 50 units of the union nut to be delivered to Norfolk Naval Shipyard within 5 days after order (ADO), representing a tight delivery schedule for the winning contractor. No incumbent contractor is identified in this notice, and no specific award value is disclosed. The quantity requirement of 50 units, while modest, necessitates expedited fulfillment capabilities given the extremely short delivery window. Prospective bidders should ensure their operations can accommodate this rapid turnaround and deliver to the Norfolk Naval Shipyard location.
