FY27-2A Foreign Bearings Waiver Package Sources Sought Notice

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is issuing a Sources Sought notice to identify U.S. domestic manufacturers capable of providing bearings that are currently sourced from foreign suppliers. The goal is to determine viable domestic sources that can meet the requirements of DFARS 225.7009 and DFARS 252.225‑7016, which govern foreign‑manufactured items and waiver procedures. The notice lists eleven specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for various bearing types. Respondents are asked to indicate capability, capacity, and any relevant certifications, but no contract award or pricing is attached at this stage. This market‑research effort will inform future solicitations for domestic sourcing of these parts. • Identify domestic manufacturers for the listed NSNs (e.g., 3110‑00‑089‑1688, 3110‑01‑603‑8353, etc.). • Demonstrate compliance with DFARS 225.7009/252.225‑7016 waiver requirements. • Provide capability statements, production capacity, and any applicable quality certifications. • No pricing, delivery schedule, or contract award date is included; the notice is purely informational.
