About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, on behalf of the United States Army, is conducting a sources sought for Collimation Attachments to support the TS-3895 field-test set for night vision systems, with responses due by July 16, 2026. This is a market research effort only and does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to contract; no reimbursement will be provided for response preparation costs.
The Government possesses a limited technical data package containing conceptual information, available conditionally under ITAR restrictions. Alternate designs require approval by CECOM ILSC. Interested vendors must request the TDP within seven days of the posting date (by July 6, 2026) by emailing DLA.Aberdeen.SourcesSought@dla.mil with proof of active JCP status, a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement, and verified CAGE certification; the TDP will then be uploaded to the DoD SAFE portal.
Responses to the sources sought announcement must be submitted to eric.j.fulmer.civ@army.mil by July 16, 2026, and must include documentation demonstrating capability to produce or source the component—such as test results, purchase order copies, or statements from the current source confirming the supplier's ability to provide the solution. The accompanying contractor questionnaire requests company overview, CAGE and DUNS numbers, past performance on similar manufacturing efforts, engineering staff qualifications for comparable components, experience with test equipment identification, obsolescence management capabilities, ability to meet Government delivery schedules, preferred contractual structure (long-term, short-term, or spot buy), and inventory status.
NAICS 333310 applies. PSC 5855 (Night Vision Equipment, Emitted and Reflected Radiation) governs the procurement.
