Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Mechanicsburg is conducting a Presolicitation / Market Survey for Steam Turbines (NSN 7H-2825-013883336, P/N S2RN/198615). This effort aims to gather industry information to generate a realistic solicitation, particularly given the Government's lack of data rights and the determination that acquiring data or reverse engineering is uneconomical. Responses are due by June 15, 2026.
Scope of Requirement
The requirement is for 8 EA of Steam Turbines, with delivery FOB Origin. The Government has determined it does not own the data or rights to the data needed to purchase/contract repair from additional sources, and it is uneconomical to acquire or reverse engineer this data. Market research indicates that FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) policies are not currently being used for this solicitation.
Information Requested from Potential Suppliers
Vendors are asked to complete and return a market survey by the closing date. Key information sought includes:
- Availability of the item.
- Whether the item is commercial or COTS per FAR 2.101(b), or a modified commercial item.
- Ability to provide price lists, recommended quantity ranges, and normal delivery times.
- Current inventory status and acceptability of FOB Origin and Inspection/Acceptance Origin terms.
- Company and manufacturer details (CAGE code, employee counts).
- Capability to provide cost or pricing data for contracts over $2,500,000.00.
- Identification of dominant materials/metals, date of last manufacture, and similar parts.
- Applicable minimum delivery order quantity/dollar value.
- Willingness to accept option years with an Economic Price Adjustment clause.
If designated as a commercial item, vendors must provide evidence of actual sale to the public, technological evolution, minor modifications, customary combinations, or transfers between affiliates (e.g., sales proof, invoices, price lists, web links).
