58--MONITOR,ENVIRONMENT

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring the Monitor Environment item, NSN 5840-016745606 with part number 9006-G501, under an Indefinite Quantity Contract with a five-year base period. The solicitation, issued on March 10, 2026, and closing on April 10, 2026, is unrestricted and conducted via the DLA Internet Bid Board System, requiring all offers to be submitted electronically. Contractors must be registered in SAM and may be required to provide Certified Cost and Pricing Data. The estimated annual demand ranges from a minimum of 11 units to a maximum of 41 units, with deliveries to be made 115 days after receipt of order under FOB Origin terms, while inspection and acceptance occur at the destination. Evaluation of proposals will be based equally on price, past performance, and delivery, with no preference given to small businesses or other socioeconomic categories, and no indication of a lowest price technically acceptable approach. The contract is managed from the DLA Aviation office in Richmond, Virginia, and the government reserves the right to issue multiple delivery orders under the IQC as needed. Suppliers must demonstrate full capability in manufacturing, inspection, testing, packaging, preservation, and logistics support for this critical-use component, with all items required to be clearly marked with the NSN and part number, though specific packaging, labeling, or preservation standards are not detailed in the available documents. Compliance with the Supplier Performance Risk System is implied due to the critical nature of the item, and no security clearances or organizational conflict of interest provisions are specified. While the contract value remains undetermined until awards are made, the acquisition follows performance-based service acquisition principles, with no technical specifications or military standards explicitly cited, leaving compliance to be inferred through NSN validation and general DoD contracting norms. The procurement is part of a broader effort to reassess market capacity following identification of one approved source, and responses to the market research phase were required by February 23, 2026, to inform the final solicitation structure.
