The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers for two specific components: a Plug Assembly (NSN 5340-01-566-6963) and a Battery Set (NSN 6140-01-596-1366). This pre-solicitation notice invites interested parties and industry sources to submit information regarding manufacturers capable of producing these items. Respondents are required to provide the manufacturer names, locations (city and state or country), and points of contact if available. The primary objective is to gather market intelligence on available sources and manufacturing capabilities for these battery-related components. All submissions should be directed to Mr. Daniel Howser at Daniel.Howser@dla.mil or by phone at 614-693-3072. The deadline for providing this market research information is December 5, 2025, with the notice having been posted on November 24, 2025.

This opportunity is not designated as a set-aside contract and represents preliminary market research rather than a formal solicitation. No incumbent contractors or current award values have been identified in this pre-solicitation phase. The notice does not specify quantities, timeline for services, or estimated contract value, as this is a fact-finding effort to assess the industrial base capability for manufacturing these components. The components fall within the Battery Manufacturing NAICS category (335910) and the Batteries, Rechargeable PSC category (6140), indicating the government's focus on identifying viable suppliers in the battery and electrical component manufacturing sector. Interested vendors should note that participation in this market research is voluntary and informational, serving to inform the government's future procurement strategy for these items.
