AI Contract Overview
This contract seeks sources capable of manufacturing the item identified by NSN 2530-00-008-3727, specifically a steer section and B part with part number 2587730. The current approved source is RONAL INDUSTRIES, INC., and the Acquisition Management Code (AMC) “3 R” indicates the Government requires acquisition directly from the original manufacturer due to restrictions related to data rights. The Government does not own or have economical access to the technical data necessary for alternate manufacturing sources, and reverse engineering is considered uneconomical. This solicitation encourages responses from companies interested in being reviewed as approved sources, particularly those qualified under the SBA Total Small Business Set-Aside designation (NAICS code 336390) to supply this part. Interested parties must submit information demonstrating their capability to produce this item to the quality standards set by the original equipment manufacturer through the DLA Land and Maritime Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) Program. This process requires submitting comprehensive technical data to prove equivalency or superiority to the OEM product. The contract is managed by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime office located in Columbus, Ohio, with Logan McLaughlin as the primary contract specialist. Responses are due by June 9, 2026, and further guidance and submission instructions are available on the DLA Land and Maritime website.
