About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is conducting a sources sought notice for a Valve, Starter component with National Stock Number 2910-01-115-8055. This pre-solicitation replaces a previously cancelled solicitation (SPE7L425R0001) and seeks to identify potential manufacturers capable of producing this engine fuel system component. The item is classified with Acquisition Method Code "1B," indicating it is suitable for competitive acquisition but must be manufactured by sources specified on a source control drawing, as adequate technical data or government data rights are not available for broader competition. Currently approved sources include RTX Corp (CAGE 55X20, Part Number 116231-7) and Tactair Fluid (CAGE 70236, Part Number 13C13507A2). Companies interested in becoming approved sources must submit technical documentation demonstrating their ability to manufacture the product to the same quality level as the original equipment manufacturer through DLA's Source Approval Request (SAR) Program. The deadline for submitting information to Contract Specialist Karin Wilson is July 8, 2025.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified sources that can meet the stringent technical requirements. The two current approved sources, RTX Corp and Tactair Fluid, represent the existing supplier base for this specialized valve component. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the accompanying market survey document indicates DLA is planning an Indefinite Delivery Contract with a three-year base period and potential additional option years. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 333618 for Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing and PSC code 2910 for Engine Fuel System Components, Nonaircraft. Companies must demonstrate manufacturing capabilities, commercial distribution networks, and delivery capacity to support government requirements. The market survey questionnaire must be completed and returned within seven business days to gather comprehensive supplier information for the upcoming formal solicitation.
