Sources Sought (LTC) - 33 NIINs

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land & Maritime is conducting a market‑research “Sources Sought” effort for 33 National Item Identification Numbers (NIINs) covering a variety of vehicle‑related components (caps, bulkhead kits, strut cartridges, covers, seals, latches, frames, handles, doors, etc.). Each part is classified under Acquisition Method Code 3 with suffixes “D” (data not available) or “P” (data owned by government but not transferable). DLA seeks manufacturers capable of producing these items directly from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or from an alternate source. Respondents must submit evidence of capability (technical data, production capacity, quality certifications) to be considered an “Approved Source” via the DLA Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) program. The deadline for responses is the “response date of this notice,” though a specific calendar date is not provided. No pricing, contract length, or award schedule is disclosed; this is purely a capability‑validation exercise to expand the supplier base for future procurements. • 33 distinct NSNs spanning vehicle‑mounting caps, bulkhead kits, suspension strut cartridges, cargo‑bed covers, seals, latches, door handles, frames, and installation kits. • All items have AMC 3 (acquire from actual manufacturer) with “D” or “P” suffix indicating data‑access constraints. • Suppliers must submit source information to Kozo Okamura (email provided) and may pursue SAR approval to become an “Approved Source.” • No formal solicitation (RFQ/RFP) – this is a Sources‑Sought/market‑research notice. • Applicable NAICS codes vary per item (e.g., 336211, 332722, 333310, 332999), with the overarching solicitation listed under NAICS 336390.
