About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is preparing to issue an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) solicitation for an electrical solenoid (NSN 5945-01-605-5483, Valcor Engineering Corporation part number V44778-329-2) and seeks qualified sources by September 24, 2026. The government does not own manufacturing data or rights to source this item from competitors; it has determined data acquisition and reverse engineering both uneconomical, resulting in a sole-source procurement against Valcor Engineering Corporation (CAGE 96487) as the currently approved source.

The anticipated contract structure consists of a three-year base period with up to four one-year option periods. Delivery orders will be issued on an as-needed basis with an estimated minimum order value guarantee of 1 percent to 10 percent of forecasted annual demand.

DLA Weapons Support is conducting market research to identify alternative manufacturers capable of producing solenoids equivalent to or exceeding the approved item's quality. Interested suppliers must submit responses to Santiago Diaz Capurro, Contract Specialist, at Santiago.DiazCapurro@dla.mil, within seven business days. Responses should address company manufacturing status, business size, commercial distribution networks, availability of commercial pricing and sales history, delivery capabilities, quantity constraints, delivery timeframes, and willingness to accept the proposed IDC structure.

Companies wishing to qualify as approved sources may apply through the DLA Weapons Support Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program. A SAR package must include all technical data demonstrating manufacturing competency and product equivalency or superiority to the current approved item.
