Rivet, blind

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is soliciting competitive quotes for the procurement of blind rivets, specifically NSN 5320010846090, through a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The procurement falls under the Hardware Manufacturing category (NAICS 332510) and Hardware and Abrasives (PSC 53). All responsible sources are eligible to submit quotes, which must be received by November 21, 2025. The solicitation is available electronically, and quotes must be submitted through electronic means; hard copies are not available. Digitized drawings and Military Specifications and Standards can be retrieved or ordered electronically. The evaluation will consider timely submitted quotes from all responsible sources, though specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in this notice.

This is a total small business set-aside, restricting competition to small business entities only. The requirement is for 8,376 units of blind rivets to be delivered to DLA Distribution Warner Robins within 171 days after order (DAO). No incumbent contractor information or award value is specified in the solicitation notice. The relatively large quantity and fixed delivery timeline indicate a supply requirement for standard hardware components. The electronic submission requirement and reference to Military Specifications and Standards suggest this procurement follows federal acquisition regulations and may require compliance with specific manufacturing and quality standards applicable to defense supply items.
