- PROCUREMENT TYPE: Sources Sought/ Market Survey for Sources to Provide Services NAICS CODE: 561, Administrative and Support Services, 561110, Office Administrative services Title: Proactive Obsolescence Management Synopsis/Market Survey: The Army Integrated Logistics Support Center (ILSC) is seeking to resolve material availability concerns for parts facing obsolescence, End-of-Life production, and Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS). The lack of resolution in material availability creates extraneous cost burdens for CECOM and compounds scheduling delays and ultimately operational readiness. According to the Defense Standardization Program Office the cost of DMSMS resolution is at its lowest limit when approved parts are sourced as opposed to redesign. Material availability issues are inevitable in every weapons system and a proactive approach to DMSMS remediation improves cost, schedule, and performance for Program Managers and the Sustainment Center. The services will be procured via a three-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract and consist of the following items (national stock numbers (NSNs), part numbers (PNs). The primary place of performance for shall be Contractor location (offsite). This is a market survey to locate viable sources who can provide services related to those items: The Contractor shall provide contractor personnel to the ILSC to support material availability and provide courses of action for Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS), End-of-Life, long lead time and obsolescence remediation. Below are some of the items (representative samples) that we would like the contractor to find: NSN/Part Numbers Nomenclature System Supported 5998-01-591-9104 CCA-RT Backplane SINCGARS RT-1523G 5995-01-593-3923 Front Panel Flex Assebly SINCGARS RT-1523G 5998-01-490-2919 Circuit Card Assembly GRM-122 5985-01-599-3112 Down Converter Switch Lot 9 UHST G672097-1 Cables, W18 AN/TSC-154A 5998-01-591-9104 CCA - RT Backplane SINCGARS RT-1523G 5998-01-663-9683 CCA - HUB SINCGARS RT-1523G 5998-01-663-9777 CCA - Controller SINCGARS RT-1523G 5998-01-59-20053 CCA - Waveform Processor SINCGARS RT-1523G 5995-01-593-3923 Front Panel Flex Assembly SINCGARS RT-1523G 6625-01-432-3819 TEST SET SUBASSEMBL GRM-122 5998-01-435-9243 CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMB GRM-122 5998-01-490-2919 CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMB GRM-122 6625-01-432-8368 ADAPTER,TEST GRM-122 5895-01-591-2267 ACU Lot 9 UHST 5895-01-591-2547 LNB Controller Lot 9 UHST 5930-01-591-2533 LNA Switch Lot 9 UHST 5985-01-599-3112 Down Converter Switch Lot 9 UHST 5895-01-599-0685 1:1 Uplink Switch Lot 9 UHST 5895-01-599-8268 KVM Lot 9 UHST 5930-01-599-0570 KVM Switch Lot 9 UHST 5895-01-599-8268 KVM (same as in Rack A1) Lot 9 UHST 5975-01-606-5566 Fiber Media Converter Lot 9 UHST 6115-01-613-2486 Generator Lot 9 UHST 5998-01-5991827 Servo Control Unit Lot 9 UHST 5996-01-657-6959 Servo Amplifier Lot 9 UHST 6130-01-607-7425 PDU Lot 10 UHST 6030-01-610-0036 Fiber Media Converter (2ea) Lot 10 UHST 5895-01-560-4514 HPA Remote Lot 10 UHST 5895-01-605-5830 TLNB Control Lot 10 UHST 5895-01-605-5832 ACU Lot 10 UHST 7025-01-588-0978 M&C Switch Lot 10 UHST 5805-01-610-1529 M&C Digital/Serial I/O Lot 10 UHST 5999-01-605-5783 ECU Remote Lot 10 UHST 6115-01-611-8093 Generator Lot 10 UHST 6660-01-610-0065 Weather Station Lot 10 UHST 6605-01-610-5861 Compass Lot 10 UHST 5985-01-605-5206 Azimuth Motor Lot 10 UHST 5895-01-534-6124 Converter, Frequency AN/TSC-156 5895-01-534-3253 Converter, Frequency AN/TSC-156 6625-01-564-4973 Spectrum Analyzer AN/TSC-156 7025-01-591-0454 ETSSP AN/TSC-156 5895-01-600-2641 Modem AN/TSC-156 N25Q064A13EF840F Diode AN/TSC-154A G689334-1 Feedhorn AN/TSC-154A G672097-1 Cables, W18 AN/TSC-154A Notice, Response due Date, and Points of Contact: This is NOT a Request for Quote or Proposal.
