66 - FLASH POINT TESTER

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the DLA Weapons Support Mechanicsburg office, is seeking a Flash Point Tester identified by NSN 7HH 6630 017251759 under solicitation SPRMM1-26-Q-MC64, with a response deadline of May 19, 2026. The requirement is for a commercially available instrument used to determine the flash point of fuels and related materials, and the solicitation is seeking to confirm commercial item status under FAR 2.101, with evidence required such as recent sales data, catalogs, pricing lists, warranties, and documentation of any modifications to commercial products. The contract is not set aside for small businesses or other socioeconomic categories, and no specific delivery location is listed beyond the contracting office in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, with FOB Origin being considered as the delivery term and inspection and acceptance also expected to occur at the origin. The estimated value of the requirement is tied to a $2.5 million threshold that triggers mandatory cost or pricing data submission for both prime contractors and any subcontractors who exceed this value, and there may be provisions for up to four optional contract years with potential Economic Price Adjustment linked to the Producer Price Index. The contracting officer representative is James Fleniken, reachable via email, and all responses must be submitted electronically to his designated address. The solicitation is structured as a market survey requiring completion of a detailed questionnaire covering commercial availability, manufacturing capability, delivery timelines, and warranty support, but formal contract clauses, packaging standards, inspection criteria, and evaluation factors are not included in the provided documentation and are presumed to be contained in an unattached full solicitation. No formal section for contract clauses, attachments, labeling requirements, or evaluation factors is present, indicating the document serves as a preliminary market research tool to inform final contract development rather than a binding procurement notice.
