About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring specialized shipping and storage containers under PSC Category 8145. This pre-solicitation notice pertains to NSN 6K-8145-012844622-CL, a flight-critical component requiring engineering source approval to maintain quality standards. The procuring activity is seeking qualified sources that possess unique design capabilities, specialized engineering skills, and manufacturing or repair knowledge that are not economically available elsewhere. A critical requirement is that only Government-approved sources may be considered for award due to the flight-critical nature of the item and the adequacy of technical data. The proposal due date is May 8, 2026, and potential offerors who are not currently approved sources must submit comprehensive source approval documentation, including technical data substantiating their production experience with the same or similar items, to be considered for evaluation.
This opportunity involves no set-aside designations and does not identify specific incumbents or current contractors in the available information. The requirement specifies a quantity of 15 units with delivery on a free-on-board (FOB) origin basis. The notice indicates that approval of new sources typically requires extended timeframes that would delay contract award, underscoring the emphasis on utilizing previously qualified suppliers. Offerors must reference the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support source approval procedures available on the Navy Supply Systems Command website for detailed submission requirements. While a specific award value is not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the technical complexity and flight-critical classification suggest a specialized procurement with stringent qualification standards.

Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition/repair of the part from the approved source(s). 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. If you are not an approved source you must submit, together with your proposal, the information detailed in one of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Source Approval Information Brochures listed below.
