A.2 Item Description: (Locations-Sagami, Iwakuni, Misawa, and Okinawa) Rolling Stock Foreign excess personal property or FEPP offered under this IFB is an item of personal property that is offered for sale outside the territory of the United States and has been determined to be safe to sell with a DEMIL code A, and Limited F. This property is sold by DOD is in “as-is, where-is” condition.

(See SBR Part 2, Art.2) This property has been determined to be excess to the requirements of the US DoD components, however, not all such property will be referred under this contract as agency regulations and policies may first require (1) reutilization within their agency or to special programs; (2) transfer to other federal agencies; or (3) donation to specified eligible entities, before an item is eligible for sale to the general public.

The Agency’s overseas management of FEPP follows the “disposition code” guidance of 41 CFR section 102-36.240 which describes excess personal property as either “new” property, “usable” property, “repairable” property or “salvage” property. The FEPP offered under this IFB has been determined to be “new”, “useable” or “repairable’ under the GSA definitions. The FEPP property offered under this IFB would not be considered scrap, which is defined as property that has no value except for its basic material content.

While DoD turn-in customers provide a supply condition code of A-H on all DTIDs for all property turned into the Agency, these codes are used in the DoD supply system as classifications for materiel in terms of readiness for issue and use, or to identify action underway to change the status of materiel. They do not directly correspond to the suitability of property being made available for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale.

Agency personnel make an independent determination on whether the property should be classified as scrap because it has no value in excess of the item’s material content and/or whether an item is suitable for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale as FEPP. The quality of the property tendered under this contract will vary and it is being sold “as is where is” with no warranty as to its condition or suitability for its originally intended, or any other specific purpose.
