Lighting and Electrical DRAFT Solicitation_SPE4AX26R0018

DLA Aviation is issuing this draft request for proposal under solicitation number SPE4AX26R0018 to address industry questions regarding the Generation I Lighting and Electrical effort. This strategic project aims to replace numerous government transactional procurements for Defense Logistics Agency depot stocked items to support the warfighter more effectively. The primary goals of this initiative are to develop long-term supplier relationships, decrease administrative and production lead times, and improve material availability within a competitive environment.

The Defense Logistics Agency Weapons Support will use feedback from this draft solicitation to assess tradeoffs, evaluate alternatives, and determine the final acquisition strategy. This pre-solicitation notice is classified under NAICS 335999, All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing, and PSC 6210, INDOOR AND OUTDOOR ELECTRIC LIGHTING FIXTURES. The procurement is designated as an 8A; 8A set-aside. Interested parties are invited to provide voluntary information to Jessica Ozmore (Rackley) by the response deadline of June 12, 2026.

The draft solicitation includes nine total attachments, including a statement of work, pricing worksheets, procurement item descriptions, and packaging text. All information provided by industry in response to these documents will be treated as proprietary to protect company interests. The results of this feedback phase will inform the government’s formal approach to the acquisition process for lighting and electrical components.
