Sources Sought for NSN 1440-01-319-8871
DLA Aviation is conducting market research to identify potential manufacturers or suppliers for a linear electro-mechanical actuator, NSN 1440-01-319-8871. This component is currently produced by Marvin Engineering Co. Inc. and Raytheon Company. The government is seeking to determine if other companies can manufacture or obtain this item, which is classified under Guided Missile Launchers (Weapon System Designator Code 01F). To be recognized as an approved source, a company must submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package. This package must provide technical data demonstrating that the contractor can produce the item to a quality level equal to or higher than the currently approved versions. This process is part of an effort to expand the competitive base for restricted-source aviation supplies. Responses are due by June 8, 2026, to the DLA Weapons Support office in Richmond, Virginia. The provided Aviation Source Approval and Management Handbook serves as the regulatory guide for alternate source qualification. This is an informational request for market research, not a formal solicitation. The government is looking for companies that can manufacture or provide the specified supplies. Contractors must demonstrate technical and manufacturing capabilities through the Source Approval Request (SAR) program by submitting a package that includes all necessary technical data.
