About this opportunity
Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support intends to solicit support, shipping, and storage container systems through a sources sought notice with responses due October 31, 2026; the requirement is currently sole-sourced to Sharkcage, Inc. (cage code 54TC1).
DLA Troop Support is conducting market research to identify contractors capable of supporting Sharkcage items including support and shipping containers, shelter mobile systems, utility area shelter system modification kits, shipping and storage covers, camouflage covers, reversible modular storage and transport covers, modular storage shelters, and intermodal storage systems. If a solicitation is released, the anticipated contract vehicle is a Long-Term Type Contract with a maximum performance period of five years. This sources sought notice is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a commitment or formal solicitation.

Any resulting solicitation will be posted on SAM.gov's Contract Opportunities website; contractors are responsible for monitoring that site.
Interested parties should contact Avril Dickerson, DLA Troop Support Directorate of Construction and Equipment, for additional information. This procurement is not set-aside and falls under NAICS 332439 (Other Metal Container Manufacturing) and PSC 8145 (Specialized Shipping and Storage Containers).
