CONTROL STICK, AIRCR

Offerors must comply with strict domestic sourcing requirements under the Berry Amendment and Buy American Act, with the Berry threshold reduced to $150,000, requiring full disclosure if non-domestic materials are proposed. Submissions must affirm that no covered telecommunications equipment or services from restricted foreign sources will be provided, in accordance with FAR 52.204-24 and DFARS 252.204-7016. Vendors must avoid including items produced via additive manufacturing unless explicitly approved, as such offers will be deemed ineligible for award. Due to fluctuating demand and frequent quantity adjustments, offerors are strongly encouraged to quote ranges rather than fixed quantities to facilitate award flexibility without administrative delays, though this does not apply to Auto IDC. All offerors must register through DLA’s new Account Management & Provisioning System to access the Vendor Shipment Module and must update DLA’s VSM schema if using WebServices, or lose shipping capability. Small business joint ventures must submit required certifications under FAR provisions for specific small business categories. Offerors unable to submit a bid by the closing date must file a “No Bid” on DIBBS with an anticipated quote date or reason to prevent assumptions of non-responsiveness.
