About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting market research for a long-term contract to procure Quad Calibration Gas under National Stock Number 6665-20-001-4671. This pre-solicitation notice seeks to identify qualified vendors capable of manufacturing or distributing calibration gas equipment that falls under NAICS code 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing. Interested vendors must complete both a Market Research Questionnaire and Spreadsheet to demonstrate their manufacturing capabilities and technical competency. Companies seeking to become approved sources must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package through DLA's Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request Program, proving their product meets or exceeds the quality standards of the Original Equipment Manufacturer. The completed market research documents must be submitted to Contract Specialist Kimberly Pozderac by July 9, 2025.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and currently has two approved sources: AIRGAS USA (CAGE code 24839) with part number X05N179CA3459B2 and GLOBAL TEST SUPPLY (CAGE code 35TK0) with part number CG-Q34-4. The estimated annual demand quantity is 1,650 units, with each unit measured individually. While no specific contract value is disclosed in this sources sought notice, the emphasis on establishing a long-term contract suggests a multi-year procurement strategy with base and option year periods. The DLA's focus on identifying multiple qualified sources indicates an effort to expand the supplier base beyond the current two approved manufacturers. This market research phase represents the initial step in what will likely become a competitive solicitation process for this specialized calibration gas equipment.
