AI Contract Overview
The National Stock Number 2530-016303036 is restricted to acquisition exclusively from the approved manufacturer, LOC PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS LLC, under AMC 3 and AMSC B designations, which require direct procurement from the original manufacturer due to the absence of available technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge necessary to qualify alternative sources. The part cannot be sourced from any other supplier because qualification testing of alternate parts is not feasible and no second source exists that meets the required specifications, as defined by DoD-STD-100. Any entity seeking to become an approved source must submit a complete Source Approval Request package through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer Program, demonstrating that their product matches or exceeds the quality and performance of the current approved item, including all necessary technical documentation and proof of manufacturing capability. All submissions for potential qualified sources must be directed to Contract Specialist Joseph Jones at joseph.1.jones@dla.mil prior to the response deadline of July 29, 2026. The solicitation, issued under solicitation number 7016878985, is classified as a sources sought notice with no set-aside, targeting manufacturers in the NAICS code 332510. The request is managed by the Department of Defense through DLA Land and Maritime, based in Columbus, Ohio, and seeks information on additional capable manufacturers to potentially expand the approved source list, though no existing alternatives are currently authorized. Prospective suppliers are advised to thoroughly review the Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program guidelines on the DLA Land and Maritime website to ensure full compliance with submission requirements and qualification standards.

The AMC/AMSC for the NSN listed above is “3 B”
AMC 3. Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the manufacturer.
AMSC B. This part must be acquired from a manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control or selected item drawing as defined by the current version of DoD-STD-100. Suitable technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available to permit acquisition from other sources, nor qualification testing of another part, nor use of a second source part in the intended application.
