Relay, Solid State

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking information regarding manufacturers of solid-state relays, specifically those capable of producing items matching National Stock Number (NSN) 5945-01-536-6091. This pre-solicitation notice invites industry sources to identify themselves and provide manufacturing capabilities, locations, and points of contact to support DLA's procurement efforts. The primary objective is to identify potential approved sources and gather intelligence on available suppliers in the relay and industrial control manufacturing sector. Companies interested in becoming qualified as approved sources may submit applications through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires comprehensive technical documentation demonstrating that the prospective product meets or exceeds the performance specifications of the original equipment manufacturer. Interested parties should submit source information directly to Kristina Wolf at Kristina.wolf@dla.mil or by phone at 614-692-7879. The deadline for responses is April 22, 2026, providing a one-week window for industry feedback.

This pre-solicitation notice carries no specific set-aside designations for small businesses or other designated categories. No incumbent contractor or current supplier information is disclosed in this notice, and no specific award value, budget range, or quantity requirements are specified at this stage. The notice does not establish a firm procurement timeline or delivery schedule, as it primarily functions as a market research and source identification tool rather than a formal solicitation. Companies responding to this inquiry should be prepared to document their manufacturing capabilities, quality assurance processes, and technical specifications to support potential future qualification as approved sources. The emphasis on demonstrating product equivalency or superiority to the OEM standard indicates that DLA seeks competitive alternatives to ensure value and reliability in its relay procurement strategy.
