About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking sources for two sealed components: a plain encased seal (NSN 5330-01-660-7189) and a vertical hinge pin seal (NSN 5330-01-663-0109). Interested contractors must demonstrate their manufacturing capabilities by completing a market research questionnaire and submitting a Source Approval Request (SAR) package through DLA's Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program. The SAR package must provide technical documentation proving that the prospective contractor can manufacture products equal to or better than the current Original Equipment Manufacturers. Companies are encouraged to submit their completed market survey to Contract Specialist Aric Allen at aric.allen@dla.mil by the response deadline of October 27, 2025, which provides five business days from the October 20, 2025 posting date. The procurement may result in a Long-Term Contract (LTC) or Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) for a potential three-year base period with option years. DLA Land and Maritime has not provided drawings or specifications, placing the burden on contractors to document and demonstrate product equivalency or superiority to approved OEM sources.
This pre-solicitation notice carries no set-aside designation and is open to all qualified sources. Currently, only two manufacturers are approved to supply these items: Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics (CAGE 05939) and The Boeing Company (CAGE 77272). The opportunity falls under NAICS code 339991 for Gasket, Packing, and Sealing Device Manufacturing, with a Product Service Code of 5330 for Packing and Gasket Materials. The market research spreadsheet includes estimated annual demand quantities and pricing ranges to inform potential bidders of market expectations, though specific award values and procurement quantities are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase. Companies seeking to become approved sources must demonstrate manufacturing competency and quality standards equal to or exceeding current OEM capabilities, with the technical evaluation focusing on product equivalency documentation and manufacturing capability evidence.
Notice text
Please review the Market Research Spreadsheet (which is included in this posting) for the NSN required and provide any sources that may be able to manufacture the item. DLA Land & Maritime does not have any drawings/specifications associated with these items. Sources interested in becoming approved sources for these NSNs must submit the appropriate information as outlined in Procurement Note L04, Offers for Part Numbered Items.
Should a company wish to be reviewed and qualified as an “Approved Source”, they may submit an application package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program. A SAR package contains all technical data needed to demonstrate that the prospective contractor can competently manufacture the product to the same level of quality or better than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The onus is on the contractor to document and demonstrate their product is equal to, or better, than the currently approved item which DLA Land and Maritime is procuring.
For further information, please reference the DLA Land Maritime web page shown below and click on the highlight: Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program for detailed explanation for the information and format necessary for a SAR and for the SAR approval process.
