About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation seeks to procure 100 units of specialized shipping and storage containers under NSN 6K-8145-014809218-XH, with delivery FOB origin required. This procurement is restricted to previously approved sources due to the flight-critical nature of the part and the requirement for engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality standards. Only contractors with existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge from qualified sources are eligible, as approved sources retain essential data rights and technical knowledge not economically available to the Government. Potential bidders who are not currently approved sources must submit comprehensive technical data and source approval information using NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support brochures for either spares or repair categories. The solicitation deadline is July 11, 2025, and offers lacking required source approval documentation will not be considered for award.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open only to firms that have previously received Government source approval for this specific item. The contract requires delivery of 100 units of the specialized container, with the part designated as TDP version 016 and reference number 3717AS100. No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. The approval process for new sources typically requires significant time that would delay contract award beyond acceptable timelines for fleet support needs, emphasizing the Government's preference for established, pre-approved suppliers. Award decisions may proceed based on fleet support requirements even if source approval evaluations for new contractors cannot be completed within the procurement timeline.

The approved source(s) retain data rights,manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. The subject item requires Government source approval prior to contract award, as the item is flight critical and/or the technical data available has not been determined adequate to support acquisition via full and open competition. Only the source(s) previously approved by the Government for this item have been solicited. The time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval of a new source.
