Water-Handling Accessories

Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support is conducting market research on the above items to determine an acquisition strategy that will enhance our support of military customers worldwide as well as to determine what your industry will be capable of providing with respect to the required item. For this reason, DLA Troop Support would appreciate your company sharing its expertise and insight into how these items can be most efficiently procured. These NSNs require First Article Testing.

DLA Troop Support anticipates issuing a solicitation for the referenced items (please see attached spreadsheet) under multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contracts. Vendors will be asked to submit “not to exceed” ceiling prices for all items being solicited. Individual requirements will be competed post award, in the form of delivery orders amongst the multiple awardees of the contract. The contract may be for a term of one year or two years.

Further, it may contain an option to extend the term of the contract. If an option to extend the term of the contract provision is included in the solicitation, each option term would be one year. However, the total contract term will not exceed five years. The answer to the questions concerning pricing will be one of the factors that will help the Government to determine the term of the contract. It should be noted that this inquiry, in no way, should be interpreted as a solicitation for offers.

No information provided in response to this inquiry will be considered binding between the vendor and the Government. With these facts in mind, it is requested that you review the item(s) and answer the questions on the attached pages. The answers you provide will remain confidential. Please return this survey to Alyson White, by February 8, 2024 via email at Alyson.White@dla.mil. Thank you for your time and consideration. Along with the Word document, please feel free to organize your comments in the provided spreadsheet attachment
