43--SEAL

The U.S. Department of Defense, through SPRMM1 DLA Mechanicsburg, is conducting a market survey to identify potential small business vendors for the procurement of 150 units of the SEAL item identified by NSN 7H-4320-015028299, with associated technical data package version 007 and reference number 2D-808448. This action is structured as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5 and falls under NAICS code 339991, limiting participation to small businesses. The government does not hold the intellectual property rights or technical data necessary to procure or repair this item from alternate sources, and reverse engineering has been deemed uneconomical, meaning the contract will be awarded to a single approved source. Delivery is required to two DLA distribution centers: W25G1U in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, and W62G2T in Tracy, California. The solicitation is in the pre-solicitation phase, specifically a sources-sought market survey, and not a formal request for quote; therefore, pricing, delivery timelines, contract terms, and acceptance criteria have not been finalized. The government is seeking vendor input on normal delivery periods, whether FOB Origin with inspection at origin is acceptable, minimum order quantities, and willingness to accept option years with economic price adjustment clauses. The response deadline is July 27, 2026, and all inquiries should be directed to Scott Coy at DLA Mechanicsburg. No contract value has been established as this phase is solely for gathering market intelligence to inform future procurement strategy.
