Winch, Drum, Vehicle

The Department of Defense is issuing a Sources Sought notice to identify qualified vendors capable of supplying winch, drum, and vehicle assemblies (NSN 2590‑01‑592‑5927) for Heavy Equipment Transporters (HET). The requirement includes a base quantity of 16 units with an option for up to an additional 16 units. Vendors must undergo qualification testing and evaluation to become an approved source; approval does not guarantee future contract awards but grants eligibility to compete on subsequent solicitations. The Government does not retain rights to the Technical Data Package or specifications, meaning the supplier retains data ownership. Interested parties should submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package via the provided TACOM Ombudsman portals. • Item: Winch, Drum, Vehicle for HET • Base quantity: 16 units; optional up to 16 additional units • NSN: 2590‑01‑592‑5927 • Part No: (75096) 51882‑004 • Requires qualification testing; source approval only grants eligibility, not a contract • No open solicitation – this is a Sources Sought (RFI) to build a qualified vendor list • Contact: Stephen Granch (DLA), (586) 506‑3212, [email protected]
