About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Contracting Command-Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA) seeks to procure Research and Development Services for Military Fuels and Lubricants to provide continued support to the Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC). The Department of the Army is pursuing this procurement under the National Defense R&D Services category, specifically for applied research and development activities. The requirement focuses on research and development work related to military-grade fuels and lubricants for ground vehicle systems. This pre-solicitation notice indicates the Army's intent to conduct a sole-source negotiation rather than pursue a competitive procurement process. No evaluation criteria, proposal deadlines, or question submission periods are specified in this notice, as this is a notice of intent rather than a formal request for proposals or competitive solicitation.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation for small businesses or other designated groups. Southwest Research Institute, identified by CAGE Code 26401, is identified as the intended sole-source contractor for this requirement, indicating they are the incumbent or previously selected contractor for this work. The pre-solicitation notice does not disclose specific award values, budget ranges, or detailed timeline information for the proposed contract. This notice is explicitly non-binding and should not be interpreted as a formal solicitation or request for competitive proposals from other potential contractors. Interested parties should monitor future postings for any formal solicitation documents, though the sole-source justification under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B) suggests limited opportunity for competitive participation.
