A cluster of DLA Land & Maritime RFQs—several with SBA set-asides and potential Automated IDC structures—focused on NSN-based spare parts with electronic-only submissions and, in some cases, limited technical data availability.

A cluster of NAICS 335312 notices posted Feb 6, 2026 points to steady demand for electric motors (buy and repair) plus a related resolver buy. Expect approved-source constraints on DLA buys, tighter technical/QA requirements on NAVSUP WSS repairs (GSI, RTAT), and fully electronic quoting.

DLA Aviation is seeking electronic quotes for NSN 6150-01-145-3355 (wiring harness). Two delivery lines are called out, both shipping to the Government of Israel with different required delivery timelines. Here’s what’s implied, who should chase it, and how to package a clean RFQ response.

A quick capture-focused read on eight small-business set-aside opportunities—from Coast Guard exterior door refurbishment to VA building energy maintenance, USACE waste pumping, and multiple DOD supply buys—plus bid/no-bid filters, response checklist, and pricing research notes.

This week’s slate mixes a fast-turn Embassy Tokyo marketing RFQ (lowest price, likely no discussions), an SBA set-aside field services requirement for Emerald Ash Borer-related ash harvesting, a VA Manila sole-source notice for Instrument Manager support (only worth challenging with compelling evidence), plus several pre-solicitation / sources-sought items to shape before they harden into an RFP.

A quick capture-focused readout of eight newly posted notices—what each buyer is trying to do, what’s implied, who should bid or pass, and how to shape a compliant response without guessing at missing attachment details.

A restricted-access DISA RFQ for commercially provided VPNS in Europe is the most immediately actionable item in this batch. Several other late‑January notices are either amendments, duplicates, or actions that won’t accept new offerors—so bid/no-bid discipline matters.

A cluster of DLA Aviation and DLA Land & Maritime RFQs posted Jan 29, 2026 for NSN hardware and electro-mechanical components. Several are approved-source / source-controlled items; all require electronic quote submission and may award as Automated IDC (one-year term or until $350K aggregate orders).

A quick NAICS-aligned read on a small cluster of NAICS 332722 fastener buys: multiple DLA Aviation bolt RFQs (some SBA set-aside) plus two NAVSUP WSS cap screw RFQs that pull in inspection, warranty, WAWF invoicing, and potential CDRL/certification data timing.

A quick analyst read on what’s actionable this week: several DLA NSN RFQs with electronic quote submission, one shipyard overhaul synopsis seeking capability statements for a 2026 availability in the Indo-Pacific, a trail repair posting that requires PIEE access for details, and a State Department LPTA supply buy in Islamabad.

Two small-business set-aside actions with clear near-term deadlines stand out in this pulse: a USCG commercial-services buy for helo hoist vessel support (with updated Q&A/Schedule via amendment) and a DLA Maritime RFQ for an NSN protective cover with electronic-only quoting. Below is what’s implied, who should bid, and how to package a compliant response without guessing at missing attachment details.

Three recent DoD instrument notices cluster under NAICS 334515 and PSC 6625. Two are active RFQs with near-term deadlines; one is an award notice. One active RFQ is explicitly brand-name (Rohde & Schwarz) and requires authorized distribution/resale—key gating factors for bid/no-bid.

One award posted for Signal Hound spectrum analyzers, while several DLA and Army hardware buys (and one real estate sources-seek) are active or approaching deadlines. Here’s what’s implied, who should engage, and how to package responses without guessing beyond what’s in the notices.

A quick capture read on three open DLA RFQs (protective cover, shipping support, metallic tube, cable assembly) plus several award notices you can mine for future demand signals. Focus on RFQ access, approved-source restrictions, drawings/spec gaps, and on-time delivery feasibility before spending bid dollars.

Two active NAWCAD actions posted Jan 28, 2026: a brand-name, firm-fixed-price RFQ for a Rohde & Schwarz FSW Signal Analyzer (quotes due Feb 5) and an intent to sole source for bandpass filter repair (responses due Feb 3). This post breaks down who should pursue each, what the buyer will evaluate, and what to put in your response package.

DLA Aviation is soliciting quotes for NSN 4920-01-542-0066 (Fuel Sample Set, Air), quantity 13, as an electronically submitted RFQ with a stated delivery timeframe in days ADO. This is a straightforward supply quote if you can match the NSN/item requirements and navigate drawings/specs retrieval.

A quick, practical read on nine small-business set-aside opportunities ranging from USCG aviation consumables (traceability-heavy) to Forest Service snowmobiles and a DLA long-term light fixture buy that may use reverse auction.

DLA Aviation posted multiple RFQs spanning NSN engine parts (compressor disk, turbine blade set, motor/parts kit) and hardware/fasteners with potential Automated IDC structures. Most are electronic-only quotes with limited specs in the notice, so your bid/no-bid hinges on approved-source status, access to drawings/specs in attachments, and your ability to meet long ADO delivery windows to DLA Distribution/depot networks.

A cluster of DLA Aviation/DLA Land & Maritime RFQs under NAICS 336412 signals near-term demand for specific NSN parts with “approved source” constraints and electronic-only quoting. This post highlights what’s implied, who should bid, and how to package a compliant response.
