SIDE CAR ASSEMBLY

This solicitation, SPRDL1-25-R-0099, seeks the procurement of 76 Side Car Assemblies, identified by NSN 6625-01-682-6626 and manufacturer part number 12992654-1, under a Firm Fixed Price contract type with a DPAS rating of DOA4. The requirement is restricted exclusively to DRS Network & Imaging Systems, LLC (CAGE 24290) or its authorized distributors, and no alternative sources will be considered. The Technical Data Package governing the item is source-controlled by this same contractor and must be strictly adhered to. The contract mandates delivery of all units to Fort Hood, Texas, under FOB Destination terms, with a 455-day performance window from award and an accelerated schedule permitted. Proposals must be submitted electronically by June 19, 2026, via email to the Contract Specialist, with a required subject line format and PDF or Excel formatting for cost submissions. All items must comply with comprehensive packaging and marking standards, including preservation and packing at a commercial level designed to withstand a minimum one-year shelf life, multiple handling, and all modes of shipment. Packaging must meet MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-130 for labeling and unique identification, and passive RFID tagging is required. Each unit must be individually packaged, accompanied by an SDS, and marked with shelf-life and transportation handling indicators as applicable. Wood packaging must be heat-treated to 56°C for at least 30 minutes. Inspection and acceptance occur at origin under government oversight, and the contractor must coordinate directly with DCMA prior to shipment; failure to do so results in rejection and return at the contractor’s expense. The contract incorporates strict demilitarization and trade security controls under ITAR, EAR, and DFARS, requiring full compliance throughout production and upon contract closure, with mandatory flow-down to subcontractors. Payment processing will be handled via WAWF using cost vouchers or invoices as specified, and all offerors must maintain current SAM certifications, including representation for foreign ownership, Buy American, and Trade Agreements. The solicitation allows only one award, and proposals are disqualified if they do not offer the full quantity or the mandated part number without a formal engineering waiver.
