Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support - Mechanicsburg is conducting a Sources Sought market survey to identify potential sources for a 5-year Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Lift, Hand Trucks (NSN: 3920 011527179). This is for informational purposes only, not a request for proposal. Responses are due April 9, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
This market survey aims to identify alternate products that are form, fit, and function equivalent to the existing Lift, Hand Truck (Part Number: 5167104, Approved Source: Deval Corporation, CAGE: 11201) and compatible with the weapons system. The DLA is preparing to solicit a 5-year FFP IDIQ contract, anticipated to have a 3-year base period plus two 1-year option periods, with an estimated yearly quantity of 60 units. The current acquisition strategy (AMC/AMSC: 3R) indicates the Government does not own the data rights to purchase this part from additional sources, and it is uneconomical to acquire data or reverse engineer.
