SHAFT ASSEMBLY, BRAK

This procurement is a DLA Troop Support solicitation, SPE8EF-26-T-1603, issued August 10, 2026, for 40 each of a SHAFT ASSEMBLY, BRAKE, NSN 1730-01-006-6634, with a required delivery of 229 days after order and destination delivery/acceptance at Hill AFB, Utah. The request is structured as a small business set-aside and is being handled through DIBBS, with quotation activity tied to the Government’s need to manage demand volatility and potentially adjust quantities. The quoted unit and total prices are to be provided by the offeror, and the solicitation does not state a government estimate or ceiling price. The buying office is DLA Troop Support, Construction & Equipment Manufacturing, and the contact listed is Russell Keiser. The solicitation also notes that it may be a candidate for automated award, though any first article test requirement would preclude that. HUBZone small business concerns receive a price evaluation preference, and offerors are expected to keep SAM representations current. The requirement is governed by DLA technical and quality provisions and includes packaging, inspection, marking, and export-control obligations. Packaging must follow RP001, with palletization in accordance with DLA packaging requirements and all marking and labeling aligned with MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-130N; technical and quality requirements take precedence over ASTM D3951. Inspection and acceptance are at destination under FAR 52.246-1, with quality conformance inspection under RQ006 and sampling guided by MIL-STD-1916, ASQ H1331 Table 1, or a comparable zero-based sampling plan; if MIL-STD-105/ASQ Z1.4 is used for lot sizing, acceptance still requires zero nonconformances. Critical, major, and minor attributes are tied to verification levels VII, IV, and II or AQLs of 0.1, 1.0, and 4.0, and unspecified attributes are treated as major unless otherwise specified. The solicitation incorporates domestic sourcing and compliance requirements, including Buy American and Berry Amendment considerations, DFARS provisions for safeguarding covered defense information and export-controlled technical data, and cybersecurity-related references including CMMC Level 2/C3PAO. Additional clauses address equal opportunity, trafficking in persons, confidentiality restrictions, and removal of government identification from non-accepted supplies. Quotes are to be submitted through DIBBS, with offerors encouraged to provide quantity ranges where
