About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking alternative sources for 33 National Stock Numbers by October 12, 2026; all items carry acquisition method codes indicating direct manufacturer sourcing due to unavailable competitive data or government non-ownership of manufacturing rights, making reverse engineering uneconomical.
The 33 NSNs span miscellaneous vehicular components (PSC 2590) and related motor vehicle parts manufacturing (NAICS 336390). Annual demand quantities, specific nomenclature, CLINs, and detailed technical specifications are provided in Attachment 1. Interested firms should identify manufacturing capability for any of the listed NSNs and submit responses to Kozo Okamura at kozo.okamura@dla.mil by the October 12 deadline. Firms seeking qualification as Approved Sources may pursue the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires submission of a complete application package demonstrating manufacturing competency and product quality equal to or exceeding current OEM specifications. The SAR process places the burden on the contractor to document equivalence or superiority against the currently approved item. This notice is a sources sought inquiry only and does not constitute a request for quotes or proposals.
Notice text
This notice is NOT a request for quotes or proposals (RFQ/RFP).
As this solicitation will contain 33 NSNs, see Attachment 1 for the following information:
1. CLIN, NSN, and NOMENCLATURE
2. Product Service Code (PSC)
3. Annual Demand Quantity (ADQ)
4. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS)
All 33 NSNs have an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) / Acquisition Method Suffix Code (AMSC) of “3/D” or “3/P”.
AMC 3. Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the actual manufacturer.
AMSC D. The data needed to acquire this part competitively is not physically available, it cannot be obtained economically, nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation.
AMSC P. The rights to use the data needed to purchase this part from additional source(s) are not owned by the Government and cannot be purchased, developed, or otherwise obtained. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer this part. This code is used in situations where the Government has the data but does not own the rights to the data.
Please review NSN(s) listed in Attachment 1 and provide any sources that may be able to manufacture this item. The approved sources for these items are listed above. All information may be submitted directly to Kozo Okamura at kozo.okamura@dla.mil. This information must be provided by the response date of this notice.
Should a company wish to be reviewed and qualified as an “Approved Source”, they may submit an application package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program. A SAR package contains all technical data needed to demonstrate that the prospective contractor can competently manufacture the product to the same level of quality or better than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The onus is on the contractor to document and demonstrate their product is equal to, or better, than the currently approved item which DLA Land and Maritime is procuring.
For further information, please reference the DLA Land Maritime web page shown below and click on the highlight: Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program for detailed explanation for the information and format necessary for a SAR and for the SAR approval process.
