AI Contract Overview

The Department of Defense's Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime office in Columbus, Ohio, is seeking information from qualified businesses regarding a potential procurement of electrical plug connectors identified by NSN 5935-013369017 under an Indefinite Delivery Contract. The acquisition will be restricted to approved sources due to the lack of complete unrestricted technical data, specifically under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Currently, the only approved source is Hi-Rel Connectors, Inc. (CAGE 34222, PN 44095-30P-303). The contract aligns with NAICS code 335931, with a typical business size limit of 600 employees. This notice is solely for market research and informational purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or a commitment by the Government to procure. The acquisition falls under Acquisition Method Code (AMC) 3 and Acquisition Management Source Code (AMSC) B, which mandates procurement directly from the actual manufacturer or other approved sources due to the unavailability of necessary technical data to allow qualification of alternative vendors or parts. Companies interested in becoming an approved source may submit an application through the DLA Weapons Support Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program, which requires comprehensive technical data demonstrating the capability to manufacture the product to the same or higher quality standards as the current OEM. Interested parties are encouraged to complete a market survey and return it by the specified deadline to aid the Government in determining the acquisition strategy. The points of contact for this effort are provided for further inquiries.
