AI Contract Overview
The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, is conducting a market survey to establish an Indefinite Delivery Contract for a Hydraulic Hand-Driven Pumping Unit with NSN 4320-01-568-1152. The sole approved source for this item is Womack Machine Supply Co. of Houston, LLC, identified by CAGE code 1SV90 and part number HP16-2103-0-N. The item is classified under AMC "3" and AMSC "D," indicating that procurement must occur directly from the manufacturer due to the unavailability of sufficient technical data to create a competitive specification, and no economical or adequate description of the item exists for open competition. The government is seeking alternative sources capable of meeting or exceeding the performance and quality standards of the approved OEM product. Suppliers interested in qualification must submit a complete Source Approval Request (SAR) package that demonstrates technical equivalence through detailed documentation including drawings, bill of materials, performance data, commercial sales history, and other supporting evidence. The SAR process requires the offeror to prove their product is equal to or better than the current approved item, regardless of commercial status. The solicitation, identified as CM26119002, has a response deadline of May 15, 2026, and proposals must be submitted to Caitlin Ferry at caitlin.ferry@dla.mil or via mail to DLA Weapons Support in Columbus, Ohio. Contract awards will be made under an Indefinite Delivery Contract with a three-year base period and four possible one-year option periods, potentially including a guaranteed minimum order of 1–10% of annual demand. While the item may qualify as commercial under FAR Part 12, compliance with MIL-STD-129R for marking and MIL-STD-2073 for packaging and preservation is expected, along with barcoding per DoD standards. All submitted data will be treated as Source Selection Information and protected under FAR provisions. Payment will be processed through DLA’s Columbus accounting office, though specific accounting codes and invoicing methods are not provided. The contracting officer, Caitlin Ferry, is the primary point of contact, with no COR or COTR designated at this stage. The award basis, whether lowest price technically acceptable or trade-off, has not been formally stated, but evaluation will focus on technical equivalence rather than price alone. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or pricing
