About this opportunity
Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting market research through a sources sought notice to identify additional sources for a Thermal Imaging System (NSN 5855-01-536-9647, Part Number 12991310-2), with responses due November 23, 2026. The notice states the government lacks drawings suitable for competitive procurement and lacks full data rights to the fully defined technical data package, so the survey seeks other potential sources. No set-aside is used.
The item is a critical component of the Abrams Fighting Vehicle System engine, with a minimum quantity of 26 and a maximum quantity of 558 for the End Item Abrams FOV. Contractors seeking to become a source of supply must meet the Source Approval Program requirements, including vehicle-level qualification testing at their own expense. TACOM Life Cycle Management Command's Competition Management Office is the lead proponent for that program, and the point of contact is available at tacom.army.mil under the Ombudsman menu.
Submissions are voluntary, and the notice is not a request for proposals. The government assumes no financial responsibility for response costs or subsequent information exchanges. The notice is classified under NAICS 334511 and PSC 5855.
