SELF CONTAINED AIR CYLINDER

The Defense Logistics Agency, through DLA Troop Support CE Hardware, is conducting market research to identify additional sources for self-contained air cylinders under NSN 4240-01-515-7154. This requirement is currently a sole-source procurement from Scott Technologies Inc. (CAGE code 15927) under part number 804722-01. Because the technical data for this component is proprietary to the current manufacturer, the agency is seeking technical data packages from interested parties to establish future competition for these items, which are classified under NAICS code 336413, Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing.

This sources sought notice, identified by solicitation number SPE8E820R0004, is intended for information-gathering purposes and is not a formal request for proposal. All submissions and technical data packages must be submitted by January 17, 2019, to the point of contact, Quianna Enang, at the DLA Troop Support office in Philadelphia. Performance is designated for the United States, and the government anticipates issuing a formal solicitation at a later date following the review of market capabilities.
