About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is conducting a pre-solicitation notice for the procurement of NSN 1420-00-906-1247, a seal cover plate used in the LGM-30 Intercontinental Ballistic Missile system. This unrestricted solicitation will establish an Indefinite Quantity Contract for the supply of these critical components, though not deemed Critical Safety Items. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with a limited number of sources under FAR 6.302 authority due to source control restrictions. The evaluation will focus on contractor capability to meet technical and quality requirements, with Government First Article Testing and Export Control requirements applying. All proposals received within forty-five days of this notice's publication will be considered by the Government, though a competitive procurement determination remains solely at Government discretion; the posted due date of June 22, 2023 appears to be administrative in nature given the current date context.

No set-aside designation has been applied to this procurement. The original equipment manufacturer is Boeing (CAGE 94756), with part number 261-0208-002, and Parker Hannifin (CAGE 83259) is currently the sole approved source under part number 638112-1. The contract will be awarded for a five-year base period with an estimated annual quantity of 120 units each, and delivery terms are FOB Destination with inspection and acceptance at origin. DLA Weapons Support - Richmond does not currently possess complete technical data on this part. Any interested contractors not already approved as sources must submit a Source Approval Request package to the Engineering Support Activity for consideration. The absence of other approved sources at this time and the source-controlled nature of the NSN may present significant barriers to entry for potential competitors.
