SEAL ASSEMBLY KIT

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, is conducting a sole-source acquisition for 61 SEAL ASSEMBLY KITS (NSN 5330-014629466) under solicitation SPE7L126R0079, with a firm-fixed-price contract type. The procurement is authorized under FAR 6.302-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) due to the technical uniqueness of the item, as evidenced by the AMSC D classification, which indicates the unavailability of competitive technical data necessary to support open competition. The sole approved source is Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp (CAGE 8FGX3), and the contract is being executed by DLA Weapons Support in Columbus, Ohio, with delivery and performance occurring at that location. Although market research was conducted and a sources sought notice posted, no competitive responses were received, confirming the necessity of the sole-source justification. An option for 100% of the requirement is included, and while alternate offers are permitted under DLAD Procurement Note L04, they are evaluated only for potential future use, not for award under this solicitation. The acquisition does not include detailed pricing, payment terms, or delivery schedules in the available documentation, and inspection and acceptance responsibilities rest with the government. The contract does not reference specific packaging, marking, or MIL-STD requirements, nor does it include defined evaluation factors, award criteria, or socioeconomic set-asides. Submission of proposals is required via the DLA Internet Bid Board System by April 25, 2026, with the contract signed digitally on April 22, 2026. A formal source approval request process is available for vendors seeking future qualification, managed through DSCCAO-SAR@dla.mil.
