Nonmetallic Hose Assembly Manufacturing

The contract calls for the manufacture and delivery of two nonmetallic hose assemblies, identified by NSN 4720002029618, designed for use in fuel and water systems operating in low-temperature environments. Each assembly must fully comply with the military specification MIL-DTL-6615J, ensuring durability, chemical resistance, and performance under extreme conditions. The hoses are equipped with reattachable couplings to facilitate maintenance, servicing, and replacement without the need for complete system disassembly, enhancing operational readiness and reducing downtime. The work is being procured under a subcontract framework by the Maritime Supply Chain ESOC Buys unit within the Department of Defense, targeting a specialized supplier with proven capability in defense-grade fluid handling systems. Solicitation was posted on July 21, 2026, with responses required by August 3, 2026, leaving a limited window for qualified manufacturers to submit proposals. The NAICS code 332999 indicates the work falls under other fabricated metal product manufacturing, reflecting the specialized nature of the assembly beyond standard piping or hose production. The place of performance and contracting office details are not fully specified, but the procurement is administered through the Defense Logistics Agency’s DIBBS platform, signaling a formal military procurement process. This contract prioritizes strict adherence to military standards, timely delivery, and compatibility with existing defense infrastructure in cold climate operational theaters.
