ARM, WINDSHIELD WIPER

DLA Land & Maritime is preparing to issue a commercial solicitation under FAR Part 12.201-1 for a five-year Indefinite Quantity Contract for the NSN 2540-01-377-3125, ARM, WINDSHIELD WIPER. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed price arrangement with a three-year base period and two one-year option periods, and will be awarded on an “All or None” basis per CLIN, with the possibility of splitting awards among multiple offerors based on best value. The acquisition is unrestricted, and the non-manufacturer rule does not apply, allowing any qualified supplier to compete without restriction. Delivery terms are FOB Origin with inspection and acceptance at destination, and technical drawings will be accessible via the TDMT as of July 9, 2026. The solicitation will be posted on the DIBBS website no later than July 31, 2026, though system delays may extend posting by up to three business days, with no hard copies available. Proposals must be submitted by August 31, 2026, and evaluation will weigh price alongside past performance, offered delivery schedules, and other relevant factors, meaning the lowest-priced offeror is not guaranteed selection. The performance location is New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, and the point of contact for inquiries is Kelly Nicklaus, with Krista Krauss available for additional support. The procurement aims to enhance or maintain supply availability for this critical component, and all activity will be conducted under the NAICS code 336320, with the Department of Defense, specifically DLA Land & Maritime in Columbus, Ohio, serving as the contracting office.
