FILTER ELEMENT FLUID

This procurement is for an Indefinite Quantity Contract to supply the FILTER ELEMENT FLUID (NSN 4330-01-662-2127, Part Number MC-320002) under an Other than Full and Open Competition basis, authorized under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), with FILTER-FAB CORPORATION (CAGE 56NK5) designated as the sole approved source. The contract will have a one-year base period with the potential for up to four one-year option periods, not to exceed five years total, and is structured to support stock replenishment for military depots with an estimated annual demand of 1,819 units. The solicitation is unrestricted with no small business or socioeconomic set-asides, and pricing will be evaluated alongside Past Performance, Delivery capability, and Surge and Sustainment metrics using a trade-off approach rather than a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable standard. Offerors must submit proposals electronically via the DIBBS portal by June 2, 2026, following the release of the full solicitation on or about June 1, 2026. While technical drawings and specifications are not publicly available through DIBBS, offerors must confirm commercial item status under FAR 2.101(b) and may be required to submit certified cost or pricing data if the contract value exceeds $2 million. Packaging, marking, and inspection standards are not detailed in the presolicitation, though standard DoD contracting practices imply acceptance will occur at government facilities with government-led inspections, and the CAGE code, NSN, and part number will be used for identification. No specific delivery schedules, FOB terms, payment offices, or contracting officer representative information are provided in this presolicitation, with administrative details expected to be finalized during contract award.
