COUPLING HALF,QUICK

This procurement opportunity involves a presolicitation for pneumatic relays, identified under the solicitation number SPE7M426R0012, with a response deadline of May 19, 2026. The acquisition is managed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime office in Columbus, Ohio. The contract falls under NAICS code 335314 and Product Service Code 5945. Due to the nature of the requirement, the solicitation includes militarily critical technical data, limiting distribution to DoD-certified businesses possessing valid clearance and DD Form 2345. This restriction is necessary because the government does not hold complete, unrestricted technical data and intends to award the contract only to approved sources, specifically Leslie Controls, who is listed as the manufacturer with exclusive approval. The solicitation is expected to be posted on the Defense Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) around May 19, 2026, and will accommodate bids for varying quantity increments ranging from 1 to 240 units, with a 100% option for increased quantities. Although price will play a significant role in evaluation, factors such as delivery schedule, past performance, and other criteria outlined in the solicitation will also influence the award decision. The procurement is not following commercial item acquisition policies but allows interested parties to express interest if they believe they can meet the requirements with a commercial item within 15 days of the notice. The contract is subject to the Service Contract Act, with the place of performance currently unspecified, and all submissions must be made in U.S. dollars and English.
