DLA Weapons Support is considering a procurement of NSN 2930-014332550 under a long-term contract.  This acquisition is for supplies for which the Government does not possess complete, unrestricted technical data; therefore, the Government intends to solicit and contract only for materiel from the approved source(s) under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1).

This sources-sought notice is for informational and planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a solicitation, obligation, or commitment by the Government.  This notice is intended strictly for market research.  This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations.  No solicitation exists currently.  The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding the availability and capability of qualified businesses that express interest in carrying out this potential contract.


The Government is not obligated to, nor will it pay for, any information received from potential sources because of this notice.  Your response to this information request will assist the Government in determining an appropriate acquisition method.


**********



The AMC/AMSC for the NSN listed above is 3/B.




AMC 3: Acquire directly from the actual manufacturer, whether or not the prime contractor is the actual manufacturer.



AMSC B:   This part must be acquired from a manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control or selected item drawing as defined by the current version of DoD-STD-100. Suitable technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available to permit acquisition from other sources, nor qualification testing of another part, nor use of a second source part in the intended application. Although, by DoD-STD-100 definition, altered and selected items shall have an adequate technical data package, data review discloses that required data or data rights are not in Government possession and cannot be economically obtained.
