WHEEL END ASSEMBLY

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support in Columbus, OH, has issued a market survey, not a Request for Proposal, to gather information for a pending solicitation for a WHEEL END ASSEMBLY (NSN 2530150270893, Part Number 60212489, Quantity 23). The survey aims to collect data from potential suppliers to create a realistic and beneficial solicitation that meets Warfighter needs. It covers general interest questions about company size, type (manufacturer/dealer), employees, parent company, and independence from OEMs. Commercial questions address whether the item is commercial per FAR 2.101, GSA schedule availability, sales to non-Government customers, and willingness to provide pricing data. The survey also inquires about FOB points, standard commercial packaging with MIL-STD-129 markings, EDI capability, and the ability to furnish cost and price data if required. The DLA seeks detailed information on estimated delivery, unit price, and commercial practices to ensure fair and reasonable pricing.
