The Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) is conducting market research through Request for Information (RFI) M67854-26-I-5301 for a Six-Containers (SIXCON) Pump Module replacement. This RFI, posted on November 17, 2025, with responses due by December 17, 2025, seeks to improve the current SIXCON system used for fuel support. The new pump module aims to reduce the system's footprint, enhance transportability and deployment, and be more user/maintenance-friendly. Key performance parameters (KPPs) include bulk fuel transfer rates of 50 GPM (desired 75 GPM), compatibility with military aviation turbine fuels, MIL-STD 3004 and EI-1581 filtration (desired EI-1588), fuel recirculation capabilities, and connectivity to all sides of the fuel tank module. Other KPPs cover manual component movement, material and operational availability, power provision to Marine Corps systems, refueling capabilities for ground and air platforms, and environmental and electromagnetic resistance. Key System Attributes (KSAs) address weight limits for the module frame and removable components, self-priming, compatibility with Marine Corps/NATO ports, defueling capabilities, stackability, operating temperatures, system safety, independent component operation, grounding capabilities, fuel measurement accuracy, and paint specifications. Additional Performance Attributes (APAs) include maintenance by specific MOS personnel and interface with alternative power sources. The Marine Corps anticipates procuring 627 systems via a 5-year Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Vendors must provide production samples for evaluation and answer questions regarding commercial availability, estimated production rates, and cost per system. Submissions must be in Microsoft Word or PDF format to jamie.fullinwider@usmc.mil by the deadline.
The Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) M67854-26-I-5301 to gather market research for potential sources of a Six-Containers (SIXCON) Pump Module replacement. This RFI is not a request for proposals and does not guarantee a procurement action. The Marine Corps is seeking an improved pump module to enhance the current SIXCON system, which is vital for fuel support across the Fleet Marine Forces. The new module should reduce the system's footprint, be mountable on all four sides of the tank module, and be more user/maintenance-friendly, offering flexibility and cost savings. Key performance parameters include a bulk fuel reception and issuance rate of at least 50 GPM (desired 75 GPM), compatibility with military aviation turbine fuels, and filtration meeting MIL-STD 3004 and EI-1581. The module must also be capable of recirculating fuel, connecting to all sides of the tank module, and allowing components to be moved by hand. Additional requirements cover environmental resilience, electromagnetic compatibility, and specific weight limits for the frame and removable components. The Marine Corps estimates procuring 627 systems under a 5-year Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Interested vendors must submit written responses by December 17, 2025, addressing questions regarding production samples, commercial availability, estimated monthly production rates, and cost per system.
