Sources Sought for 3RM, INTERROGATION, M

Army Contracting Command-Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA) is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of manufacturing the 3RM, INTERROGATION, M (NSN: 2590-01-696-9401, Part Number: 4533369), classified under NAICS Code 336110. This is a sources sought notice and market research survey intended for government planning purposes only, with no guarantee of a future solicitation or contract award. Interested vendors—both small and large businesses—must demonstrate their qualifications, capabilities, and responsibility to deliver the equipment by responding to three specific questions: whether the item is offered for sale in the commercial marketplace, whether small business subcontracting limitations would be met, and the vendor's minimum sustaining rate for the item. Responses must be submitted via email to Ciara Woodard-Brown, Contract Specialist, at ciara.l.woodard-brown.civ@army.mil no later than Friday, March 20, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. EST. The government seeks comprehensive vendor questionnaires addressing company profile information, business classification, manufacturing history with government agencies, production capabilities, lead times, sustainable monthly production rates, unit pricing, quality management system certifications, first article testing experience, and production location details.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and no incumbent contractor information has been identified. The government anticipates manufacturing approximately eight units of the 3RM, INTERROGATION, M, which is part of the Common Robotics System - Heavy (CRS-H) program. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in this market research phase. Vendors claiming small business status must verify their information in SAM.gov and address nonmanufacturer rule qualifications and subcontracting limitations. All proprietary and confidential information submitted must be clearly marked with appropriate restrictive legends, and the government acknowledges its obligation to protect trade secrets and confidential data in accordance with 18 USC 1905. This market research notice represents an early opportunity for interested vendors to establish a relationship with the government ahead of potential future procurement actions.
