AI Contract Overview
This contract seeks sources for the manufacture of a gasket identified by NSN 5330-01-254-5319, with the approved source currently being Tranter PHE Inc. The contract specialist for this procurement is George Sawyer, who can be contacted via email for submissions or inquiries. The acquisition is governed by Acquisition Method Code (AMC) “3” and Acquisition Method Suffix Code (AMSC) “L,” indicating that the gasket should be acquired directly from the original manufacturer on subsequent procurements, and although the annual buy value falls below the screening threshold, existing sources have been verified without further competitive screening. Potential suppliers are invited to submit information if they believe they can manufacture this part, and interested companies may apply to become an approved source through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) program. This process requires submission of detailed technical data demonstrating that the product meets or exceeds the quality of the original equipment manufacturer. Responses must be submitted by the stated deadline of May 25, 2026, with all relevant information directed to the contract specialist. Additional details and submission guidelines are available on the DLA Land and Maritime website.
