The Defense Logistics Agency-Aberdeen, acting on behalf of the Army Integrated Logistics Supply Center’s Strategic Sourcing Directorate, is conducting market research to identify qualified sources capable of manufacturing the Front Panel I/O CCA Integrated Data Modem-401, NSN 5998-01-706-3799, a critical component used in military air-to-ground and air-to-air data communication systems. This initiative is a follow-on effort to ensure sustainment of the IDM-401, with the Government possessing a complete Technical Data Package (TDP) including Level 3 production information that is available for conditional release under strict ITAR controls. To support this effort, respondents must demonstrate past or current manufacturing experience with the item or its components by submitting documentation such as drawings, test results, evidence of prior government or commercial contracts, and data rights assertions. Submission is mandatory for access to the TDP through the DoD SAFE portal and requires compliance with the Joint Certification Program, a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement, verification of an active CAGE code in SAM, and certification of engineering expertise. All responses must be submitted electronically by July 13, 2026, to the designated email address, with technical inquiries directed to the provided points of contact; no phone inquiries will be accepted. This Sources Sought Announcement is strictly for market research and acquisition planning purposes, does not constitute a solicitation, and will not result in immediate contract award or cost reimbursement. The Government intends to use the gathered information to determine the availability of responsible sources, assess competitiveness, and evaluate potential set-aside options for small businesses, with a preference for an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity contract structure. Access to control technical data requires strict adherence to DFARS 227.7103-7, including limitations on use, reproduction, and disclosure, and requires that all data be destroyed within 30 days after contract termination. No packaging, marking, payment, or delivery schedule details are specified, as this is a pre-solicitation phase focused solely on validating industry capabilities to support a future procurement.
