Opportunity Summary

The Defense Logistics Agency, specifically DLA Land and Maritime, issued this sources sought notice to identify potential manufacturers for a tire chain assembly identified by NSN 2540-124172097. The procurement is currently classified under Acquisition Method Code 3 and Acquisition Method Suffix Code D, indicating that the item is procured from the actual manufacturer because the government lacks the technical data, specifications, or economical means to acquire the part competitively through reverse engineering. At present, Rud Ketten Rieger (CAGE D3800) and Freedom Defense Group, LLC (CAGE 8BZZ1) are the only approved sources for this requirement.

This market research effort falls under NAICS code 336360 for Motor Vehicle Seating and Interior Trim Manufacturing and PSC 2540 for Vehicular Furniture and Accessories. While the government currently relies on the two established sources, other companies may seek qualification as an approved source by submitting a Source Approval Request (SAR) package. A SAR must include comprehensive technical data demonstrating that the prospective contractor can manufacture the product to a quality level equal to or better than the original equipment manufacturer.

Responses to this notice, including the "Market Survey Blank Revised Form.docx" attachment, must be submitted to the contract specialist, Sarah Harmon, by the deadline of May 7, 2026. This notice, solicitation number 7015535079, is used to gauge market capabilities and does not constitute a competitive solicitation at this time.
