Transfer Transmission

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking qualified sources for Transfer Transmission Assemblies (NSN 2520-01-469-9893) to support High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) production. This pre-solicitation notice is not an open solicitation but rather a Sources Sought Notice (2026-SPRDL126R0093) designed to identify potential suppliers capable of manufacturing this critical drivetrain component, which functions as a secondary gearbox directing power from the engine to both front and rear axles to enable four-wheel-drive capability. Prospective vendors must understand that qualification testing and evaluation are mandatory prerequisites for becoming an approved source, and that source approval does not guarantee future business awards. Vendors interested in competing should submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) Package by April 23, 2026, and can obtain requirements and program details through the Source Approval Program information and contacts provided by the TACOM Source Approval Officer at usarmy.detroit.tacom.mbx.mso-ombudsman@army.mil.

This opportunity carries no set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all qualified manufacturers in the Motor Vehicle Transmission and Power Train Parts Manufacturing sector (NAICS 336350). The Government anticipates a minimum guaranteed quantity of 63 units with an estimated maximum three-year procurement quantity of 945 units, indicating a significant long-term demand for this component. While specific contract values are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the volume requirements and three-year procurement window suggest substantial aggregate value. The Technical Data Package (TDP) will be provided to qualified sources when available, which will be essential for conducting the required qualification testing and evaluation. Vendors should recognize that this notice represents an opportunity to qualify as an approved source, positioning them to compete on future formal solicitations for HMMWV transfer transmissions.
