DLA Land and Maritime, specifically DLA Weapons Support in Columbus, Ohio, is conducting market research for the potential procurement of electric heat guns under NSN 4940-014752026. The agency is considering the award of a long-term Indefinite Delivery Contract with a proposed three-year base period. Due to a lack of complete, unrestricted technical data, the government currently intends to solicit and contract only from the approved source, Malcom Company, Inc., using part number MCH-100-A. This acquisition falls under NAICS code 335999, with a business size limit of 600 employees. This action is currently a sources-sought notice for informational and planning purposes and is not a formal solicitation for proposals or quotations. The government is seeking to determine the availability and capability of qualified businesses to assist in deciding the appropriate acquisition method. While the current approved source is Malcom Company, Inc., other companies may apply to be reviewed and qualified as an approved source by submitting a Source Approval Request package through the DLA Weapons Support Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program. Interested parties must submit the completed market survey to Mandy Phipps-Kuhlman by 4:00 p.m. EST on September 4, 2026.
