About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment is seeking to procure compressed gas cylinders for air breathing equipment under National Stock Number 8120-01-602-0607. The procurement is for a specific Scott Technologies cylinder (Part Number 804721-31) manufactured by Scott Technologies (CAGE 15927), as DLA does not currently have an approved technical data package to evaluate alternate offers from other sources. This solicitation (SPE8EG-25-Q-0004) utilizes other than full and open competition and will result in a Fixed Price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with delivery required FOB Destination and inspection/acceptance at destination. The evaluation will be based on price only, with the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offer meeting all terms and conditions receiving the award. Quotes must be submitted through the DLA Bid Board System no later than September 16, 2025, at 3:00 PM EDT, with delivery required within 165 days after order date.

This procurement does not utilize any small business set-aside designations and is unrestricted competition, though limited to the single approved source of Scott Technologies. The contract structure includes a base period of one year with four one-year option periods, potentially spanning five years total, with an estimated annual quantity of 570 units for the compressed air cylinders. The contract has a guaranteed minimum value of $70,000 and a maximum value of $7,500,000 across all periods, requiring pricing submissions for both the base year and all four option years. The Buy American Act clauses apply, mandating that manufacturing be performed in the United States, and vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management to be eligible for award.
