Sources Sought_Electronic Components Assembly, Card File

The Army Contracting Command - Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA) is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice for an Electronic Components Assembly, Card File (NSN: 5998-01-263-0235, Part Number: 9396091) associated with the End Item M139 Mine Dispenser. This market research survey aims to identify qualified manufacturers under NAICS code 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing) who can produce these electronic components with distribution-limited Technical Data Package requirements. Interested vendors must possess a current DD 2345 Military Critical Technical Data Agreement certification and complete a detailed questionnaire covering company profile, manufacturing capabilities, production lead times, quality management systems, and commercial availability. The government seeks to understand industry capabilities and qualifications to inform its acquisition strategy for a potential future procurement, with first article testing requirements anticipated. Responses must be submitted via email to Kaley Weeden at kaley.h.weeden.civ@army.mil by September 11, 2025, at 3:30 PM EST.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation and is open to all qualified contractors, though the government expresses preference for small business types including 8(a), HUBZone, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the notice, and no specific contract values or budget ranges are disclosed as this is strictly a market research exercise. The anticipated production requirement is 6 units per year, representing a relatively small-scale manufacturing need for this specialized defense component. The government emphasizes that this Sources Sought Notice does not constitute a solicitation and creates no obligation to issue a future contract, though a subsequent formal procurement is anticipated based on the market research findings.
