Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Philadelphia, PA intends to acquire 16 units of the DISPLAY UNIT, FLIGHT (NSN 7R-6610-016815999-BL). This is a presolicitation notice indicating the Government's intent to negotiate with only one source under FAR 6.302-1 due to the item's flight-critical nature and proprietary data rights held by approved sources.
