The Department of Defense, through DLA Land Warren, is conducting a sources sought notice under solicitation SPRDL1-26-R-A032 for the procurement of 1,240 electric squibs, with an additional option for 1,240 units. These components are used in the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle to enable an adjustable active suspension feature that lowers the vehicle height for transport in aircraft and naval ships. The current specified part is manufactured by Amerex Corporation under part number 20640-040. This market research effort aims to identify potential alternative sources of supply, as the government lacks the full data rights and drawings necessary for competitive procurement.

Responses to this voluntary capability survey are due by September 18, 2026.
