The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, is seeking sources for the procurement of a retaining plate seal, identified by NSN 5340-01-446-4816. The objective is to gather information from potential manufacturers who can produce this item, as the government does not own the necessary data or rights to procure it from additional sources, making it essential to identify qualified suppliers. This procurement is critical for maintaining operational readiness and ensuring the availability of necessary hardware components. Interested parties are encouraged to submit their capabilities and qualifications to Contract Specialist Travis Grafton at travis.grafton@dla.mil by the specified response date, and may also consider applying for approval as an “Approved Source” through the DLA's Alternate Offer/Source Approval Request Program.
