The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, is seeking sources for the procurement of a "Parts Kit, Battery" identified by NSN 6160-01-652-8615. The agency is specifically looking for vendors who can fulfill an order of 639 units and provide details regarding their business status, delivery capabilities, and compliance with government regulations, while ensuring pricing competitiveness with the expected unit price of $2,911.30. This procurement is critical as it involves specialized battery components that are currently only available from Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, and the government is exploring additional sources to enhance competition and supply chain resilience. Interested vendors should submit their information to Contract Specialist Jon Mitchell at jon.mitchell@dla.mil by the specified response date, and those wishing to be considered as approved sources must follow the DLA's Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request (SAR) process outlined on their website.
