About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is seeking potential alternative manufacturers for a Steer Section & Brake Assembly with National Stock Number (NSN) 2530-00-008-3727. Currently, Ronal Industries Inc. is the sole approved source for this part, with part number 2587730. The agency is utilizing its Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program to identify additional qualified manufacturers who can produce this component. Interested companies must submit a comprehensive application package demonstrating their ability to manufacture the part at equal or better quality than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The technical documentation must prove the prospective contractor's manufacturing capabilities, with the burden of proof lying with the potential new source to demonstrate product equivalence or superiority. All submissions must be sent directly to Contract Specialist William Perez at william.perez@dla.mil by May 1, 2025.
The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations for this procurement. The government currently does not own the technical data rights for the part and has determined it would be uneconomical to purchase these rights or reverse engineer the component. While no specific award value or quantity is mentioned, the solicitation is categorized under NAICS code 336390 for Other Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturing and PSC code 2530 for Vehicular Brake, Steering, Axle, Wheel, and Track Components. The procurement process is structured to ensure that any new manufacturer can meet the stringent quality standards required by the DLA Land and Maritime.
