Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land & Maritime is conducting a Sources Sought market research effort to identify potential manufacturers for 6.2L diesel engine components (specific National Stock Numbers - NSNs). DLA currently lacks drawings and specifications for these items. The purpose is to gather information to support a future Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC or Long Term Contract - LTC) and identify qualified sources. Responses are due April 30, 2026.
Scope of Work & Requirements
DLA Land & Maritime is seeking sources capable of manufacturing specific NSNs for 6.2L diesel engine components. Interested parties should review the attached Market Research Spreadsheet for the required NSNs. Since DLA does not possess drawings or specifications, the onus is on potential sources to demonstrate their manufacturing capability.
Key Actions for Industry
- Review NSNs: Examine the "Market Research Spreadsheet" for the list of required NSNs.
- Provide Source Information: Submit details on your ability to manufacture these items.
- Complete Questionnaire: Fill out and return the "Market Research Questionnaire," which gathers company information, business size, interest in LTCs, cost data, and commerciality details. This input will help shape the final solicitation.
- Source Approval: Companies interested in becoming an "Approved Source" must submit an application package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, as outlined in Procurement Note L04. This requires providing technical data to demonstrate the ability to competently manufacture the product to the same or better quality than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Further details are available on the DLA Land and Maritime website.
