The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is conducting market research (Sources‑Sought) to identify firms capable of manufacturing 91 units of Latch Assembly, Conveyor (NSN 1670‑009896799, Part No. 14711‑200) for the Hercules C‑130. The effort requires full‑scope production—including procurement and manufacture of components, inspection, testing, preservation/packaging, and shipping—plus supply‑chain management, logistics planning, production forecasting, long‑lead‑time parts acquisition, DMSMS mitigation, and delivery of serviceable assets. Respondents must submit organizational details (name, address, contact information, ownership type) and a tailored capability statement with supporting documentation of staff and technical capacity; any anticipated subcontracting or teaming arrangements must include the proposed administrative and management structure. Responses are voluntary and not a solicitation; they will be used to assess market capacity, financial and human‑resource capability, and the ability to execute a performance‑based contract with strict schedule, cost, performance‑tracking, key‑personnel retention, and risk‑mitigation requirements. The requirement may be set‑aside for small businesses or pursued through full/open competition with multiple awards possible. Submissions are due electronically to Lamar Olivier (lamar.olivier@dla.mil) by 15 April 2026, 15:00 EST. Telephone inquiries will not be accepted.
