AI Contract Overview

The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency, is issuing a solicitation on July 10, 2006, for the privatization of the supply chain management of aircraft tires in accordance with the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) statute. This initiative aims to privatize the supply, storage, and distribution functions of aircraft tires (Federal Supply Classes 2610, 2620, and 2630), transitioning these responsibilities fully to private industry while retaining only the supply contracting function within the Department. This approach is intended to enhance responsiveness, leverage modern technologies and business practices, reduce costs, eliminate inventory and infrastructure, and support military deployment and sustainment needs effectively. The contract will be awarded on an all-or-none, unrestricted basis as a Long-Term Firm Fixed Price Requirements contract, with a five-year base period and an optional five-year extension. It includes an Economic Price Adjustment provision capped at a 7% annual increase and allows flexibility through an Add/Delete clause to meet evolving military requirements. Commercial item acquisition regulations apply, and the solicitation will be conducted under FAR Part 12. Interested parties can access the solicitation exclusively via the Defense Supply Center Columbus website, with proposals due by August 18, 2006; the solicitation will not be posted on the Federal Business Opportunities website.

Full Description

This is issued to correct the Issue Date to 10 July 2006.THIS IS A SOLICITATION NOTICE. In accordance with the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) statute, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) will issue a RFP for the Tire Privatization Initiative on Friday, June 30, 2006. The purpose of this RFP is to solicit proposals for supply chain management of aircraft tires for the Department of Defense. Under the Base Realignment and Closure Act of 1990, 10 U.S.C. 2687 note, the BRAC Commission's recommendation to privatize the supply, storage and distribution for tires (Federal Supply Classes 2610, 2620, and 2630) became law on November 8, 2005. This recommendation is intended to create a more responsive supply support to user organizations and deployment, and the sustainment of forces when deployed worldwide. Privatization enables the Department to take advantage of the latest technologies, expertise, and business practices, which translate into improved support to customers at less cost. This recommendation disestablishes the wholesale supply, storage, and distribution functions for all aircraft tires used by the Department of Defense, retaining only the supply contracting function. The Department will privatize these functions and will rely on private industry for the performance of supply, storage, and distribution of these tires. By doing so, the Department can divest itself of inventories and can eliminate infrastructure and personnel associated with these functions. The resultant contract will be awarded on an all or none basis and is being solicited as unrestricted. This acquisition will use a Long-Term Firm Fixed Price Requirements contract, five year base period with one-five year option period, with Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) provisions. The EPA provision is limited to a maximum increase of 7% per year. IAW FAR 2.101 the contracting officer has determined the tires to be purchased under this solicitation meet the definition of commercial items and will be solicited under FAR Part 12. This solicitation includes an Add/Delete clause which allows the Government to adapt the resultant contract to the changing needs of the military customer. The solicitation will be available at the following web site: http://www.dscc.dla.mil/programs/tiremgmt Schedule: This solicitation will issued on 10 July 2006. The Solicitation closing date will be 18 August 06. WE DO NOT POST OUR SOLICITATIONS ON THE FEDBIZOPPS, ONLY THE NOTICES. THE SOLICITATION WILL ONLY BE POSTED AT THE WEBSITE LISTED IN THIS NOTICE.
