The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is seeking sources for Projectile Rack Assembly components, identified by National Stock Number (NSN) 2590-01-179-9039. This pre-solicitation notice is designed to identify potential qualified manufacturers capable of producing these items to meet government requirements.

Interested companies must complete and return the attached Market Survey questionnaire by December 23, 2026, providing detailed information about their manufacturing capabilities, inventory status, delivery timelines, and pricing. Alternatively, companies seeking formal approval as an "Approved Source" may submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package through the DLA Weapons Support Columbus Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program, which requires comprehensive technical documentation and quality assurance evidence. The evaluation will focus on the contractor's ability to competently manufacture products to government specifications and deliver within required timeframes.

This procurement carries a total small business set-aside designation, limiting competition to small business entities. The current approved source for this NSN is classified as "1/G" under the AMC/AMSC system. The solicitation anticipates procuring 125 units with a potential 100% option, bringing the total possible acquisition to 250 units, classified under NAICS code 336320 (Motor Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Equipment Manufacturing). Respondents must indicate their willingness to provide firm fixed-price contract offers with F.O.B. Origin pricing terms and should identify any potential quantity and price break opportunities. The market survey response deadline is December 29, 2025, providing interested parties approximately two weeks to gather and submit necessary information. All submissions and inquiries should be directed to the contract specialist identified in the sources sought notice.
