DLA Troop Support is requesting information from sources of supply for a requirement for an Expeditionary Barrier System (EBS), designed for use in expedient force protection barrier construction for expeditionary and austere environments. The barriers are commonly used to protect troops in conflicts around the world. There are eighteen (18) EBS of various dimensions. The EBS are available in nine (9) different sizes and the color options are beige or green. (See attached Market Survey, MIL-DTL-32488 and Supplemental Quality Assurance Provision for specifications). Vendors replying to this RFI will need to have the capability to ship worldwide. These shipments will include depot stock and direct vendor delivery shipping requirements.

This is a "sources sought" notice, not a Request for Proposal (RFP). This is a Request for Information (RFI) as defined in FAR 15.201(e).  Reponses to this RFI are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract.

The contractor will be required to manufacture these items and satisfy the Government's delivery requirements. Responses to this survey must include documentation citing the following:

-Contractor's experience demonstrating the capability to meet the Government's requirements in producing products that meet all performance requirements, and that are physically and functionally interchangeable with presently identified item.
-Quality Standard (Government or Industry) that shall be in place for this effort.
-Past Performance for the same or similar items. The contractor shall submit their part numbers, NSN, or nomenclature and the date of the last manufacturing effort of the same or similar items for which they have production experience. Government contract numbers, if applicable, shall be provided.
-The contractor must provide information to show it possesses, or shall possess, adequate production plant facilities (equipment, tooling, and space) to enable it, or its subcontractors, to meet production delivery requirements for these items.
