This sources-sought synopsis is for market research only, not a solicitation, and the Defense Logistics Agency at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, is seeking potential manufacturing/supply sources to determine whether future efforts can be competitive or set aside for small business. The agency seeks qualified sources for a Cable Assembly, Spec, NSN 6150-01-531-5490, Part # 13508085-4, applicable to the Patriot Missile Weapon System, under NAICS 335311 with an 800-employee size standard. The item is coded AMC/AMSC 3C, meaning it must be acquired directly from the actual manufacturer, requires engineering source approval by the design control activity, and is currently limited to a small number of responsible sources under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2). The government invites all business types, including 8(a), small business, small disadvantaged, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and women-owned concerns, but all offerors must meet prequalification requirements, and firms that can produce the item are encouraged to identify themselves and seek source approval through the contract team. The contractor will be responsible for recurring and nonrecurring engineering services to become a qualified source, all manufacturing/production aspects such as supply chain, logistics, forecasting, long-lead procurement, obsolescence, and final delivery, and any additional costs, while foreign firms must process requests through their embassies and export-controlled data cannot be released outside the U.S. without government approval.
