The Defense Microelectronics Activity in McClellan, California is seeking industry input through a sources-sought notice to identify capable vendors for the in-house design, tool fabrication, and production of sheet metal enclosures used in data transfer applications. The work is divided into two phases: Phase 1 requires reverse-engineering existing enclosures, developing 3D CAD models, and fabricating progressive dies, jigs, and molds; Phase 2 demands the use of that tooling to stamp, form, bend, machine, and assemble the final enclosures. All work must be performed entirely in-house by the contractor, in strict compliance with R-FAR 52.219-14, which prohibits broker or pass-through arrangements and requires the entity to be a direct manufacturer. The effort falls under NAICS code 333517, with a small business size standard of 500 employees, and corresponds to PSC 3456 for cutting and forming tools. Vendors interested in responding must submit a capability statement not exceeding three pages that includes company details, point of contact information, CAGE code, UEI number, business size status, and applicable socioeconomic categorization such as WOSB, HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Responses must not contain proprietary, classified, or sensitive information, and will be used solely for market research purposes to inform future acquisition decisions, including potential small business set-asides. The submission deadline is July 3, 2026, at 5:00 PM PDT, and responses must be emailed to the designated point of contact; no formal solicitation, quote, or proposal is being requested at this time, and no costs will be reimbursed for participation. The government will not provide feedback or acknowledge receipt, and failure to respond will not disqualify any vendor from participating in a future solicitation, which may be issued after review of the submissions.
