The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) will issue a Request for Proposal on or about July 21, 2022 at https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/.  The proposed contract will be solicited as unrestricted allowing all business sizes to submit offers.   

This is not a request for quote or proposal.  The purpose of this pre-solicitation notice is to provide prospective vendors the opportunity to review the NSN. 

This NSN is a code and part number item.  Acquisition is restricted to the current limited source of supply. 

NSN                         PRT NUM      COMPANY NAME          CAGE

5330012809849     5056T91P01  Beacon Industries            32816

                               5056T91P01   General Electric              99207

The solicitation will be issued on an all or none basis per NSN, which means vendors may provide a proposal on one NSN, all NSNs, or any number of NSNs in between.  The NSN listed on the request for proposal will have a contract minimum and maximum that is set at the NSN level.

An indefinite quantity contract with three base years and two possible option years is anticipated. The total duration, base period plus option years shall not exceed 5 years.  The solicitation for the NSN, determined as commercial of a type under FAR 2.101 (3) (i), will be solicited using FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items.

Items are all for DLA Direct (Stock) requirements.  When solicited, the NSN will have quantity breaks.  The solicitation will specify Inspection/Acceptance at Origin or Destination and whether Military Packaging or commercial packaging applies. Government requested delivery will be annotated on the solicitation. 

While price may be a significant factor in the evaluation of offers, the final decision will be based on a combination of price, past performance, delivery and any other factors listed in the solicitation.
