About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting a pre-solicitation market survey for torsion bar suspension components under NSN 2510-015421271. This procurement falls under NAICS code 336330 for Motor Vehicle Steering and Suspension Components Manufacturing and involves the acquisition of torsion bars with part number 7010599-3. The procurement is subject to strict source control requirements under DoD-STD-100, with an AMC/AMSC designation of "3 B" that mandates acquisition directly from the actual manufacturer due to limited technical data and data rights in government possession. Currently, AMZ ALABAMA INC. with CAGE codes 05386 and 076M6 serves as the approved source for this item. The government is seeking information from potential suppliers about their manufacturing capabilities, inventory availability, and ability to meet quality standards equivalent to or better than the original equipment manufacturer, with all responses due by close of business on August 25, 2025.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designation and is open to all qualified manufacturers or dealers. AMZ ALABAMA INC. is identified as the current approved source and potential incumbent contractor for this requirement. The government has indicated a requirement for 120 units with a potential 100% option that could increase the quantity to 240 units total. Companies interested in becoming qualified as approved sources must submit an application package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires comprehensive technical data demonstrating manufacturing competency. The market survey requests detailed information about commercial sales history, pricing structures, packaging capabilities, and supplier willingness to submit firm fixed-price contract offers for future procurement actions.
