Specialty Steel RFI - WarstopperThe Defense Logistics Agency Warstopper Program is requesting information from vendors on Specialty Steel usage to evaluate the potential expansion of its Specialty Steel buffer, particularly focusing on Triple Melt grades such as VIM/VAR, which are critical for surge and sustainment capabilities. This RFI is purely for informational and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to procure. Respondents are asked to provide detailed data including steel specifications, annual and five-year demand projections, intermediary forms like bar, plate, or rounds, current lead times, internal buffer practices, waste management processes, and any minimum buy quantities or surge requirements that impact production timelines. All proprietary information submitted will be treated as confidential within the DLA Warstopper chain of command, and vendors must clearly identify such data. The government will not reimburse any costs associated with responding to this RFI. Vendors interested in participating must submit responses via email to Christine Boyer at christine.boyer@dla.mil with the subject line “RFI – Specialty Steel” no later than August 31, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. EST. Verbal submissions or inquiries will not be accepted, and it is the vendor’s responsibility to confirm receipt of their response. This RFI is not linked to any current or future contracting opportunity, and failure to respond does not disqualify companies from future solicitations, should one be issued.

Samarium and Gadolinium RFI - WarstopperThe Defense Logistics Agency Warstopper Program is seeking input from industry to evaluate the potential establishment of a strategic buffer stockpile of Samarium and Gadolinium metals, critical materials used in defense-related applications such as high-performance magnets. This Request for Information is purely for planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or obligation to purchase; respondents must bear all costs associated with submitting information, and no payment will be provided. The agency is particularly interested in technical specifications including purity levels, allowable impurity limits for oxygen, carbon, iron, and calcium, physical forms used in production, and current and projected annual demand over the next five years. Respondents are also asked to disclose lead times, minimum order quantities, internal inventory practices, waste management procedures, and the extent of material loss during manufacturing. Additionally, the DLA seeks details on end-products with surge requirements, compliance with DFARS restrictions on material sourcing, and the tier at which oxide-to-metal reduction and alloying occur in the supply chain. The Warstopper Program operates under the National Defense Authorization Act to maintain industrial readiness for mission-critical items with significant peacetime-to-wartime demand disparities and extended lead times. The information gathered through this RFI will inform future decisions on whether to procure and stockpile these rare-earth metals to mitigate supply chain vulnerabilities. Submissions must be sent via email to Christine Boyer at Christine.boyer@dla.mil with “RFI – SmCo” in the subject line and are due by August 31, 2026, at 3:00 PM EST. No verbal responses will be accepted, and vendors must confirm receipt of their submissions. While responding to this RFI is voluntary and does not guarantee future contract opportunities, failure to participate may limit awareness of industry capabilities when a future solicitation is issued, which will be announced exclusively on SAM.gov.

Respondents are not compensated for their time or expenses, and no proposals will be accepted. The government is focused on understanding current industry practices regarding titanium grades, specifications, and forms used to fulfill DPAS-rated orders, including annual demand, lead times, intermediate product types, and anticipated five-year demand forecasts. The goal is to identify gaps in supply chain resilience and ensure any future buffer acquisitions align with original equipment manufacturer needs. Vendors are asked to provide details on their internal inventory of titanium intermediaries, waste management practices, minimum buy constraints, and products with known surge demands that could be impacted by extended lead times. All proprietary information submitted will be protected as business confidential within the DLA Warstopper chain of command. Responses must be submitted via email to Christine Boyer by 3:00 p.m. EST on August 31, 2026, with the subject line “RFI – Titanium”; no verbal submissions will be accepted, and respondents bear full responsibility for confirming delivery.

DLA-SM Broad Agency AnnouncementThe Defense Logistics Agency Strategic Materials is conducting a Broad Agency Announcement, SP8000-26-B-BAA0, to solicit research and qualification efforts aimed at stabilizing and restoring domestic supply chains for strategic and critical materials listed in the National Defense Stockpile. The BAA remains open from January 30, 2026, to January 30, 2029, with white papers accepted through May 1, 2028, and all evaluations concluding on August 1, 2028. Proposals must address refining, processing, beneficiation, recycling, and recovery of materials such as rare earths, neodymium iron boron, and samarium cobalt magnets, with specifications requiring total rare earth metals and energy magnetic density measurements. Offerors are required to develop their own Performance Work Statement following a prescribed structure including objectives, scope, background, and contractually binding technical requirements. The government will evaluate technical acceptability through four subfactors—scientific and technical merit, relevance and contributions, innovation, and qualifications—which serve as a mandatory pass/fail gate, with any failure on a single subfactor rendering the proposal unacceptable. Past performance and price are also evaluated, with non-price factors substantially more important than cost. Technical proposals are limited to twenty single-sided pages in 12-point Times New Roman font with one-inch margins, submitted as a PDF via email to DCSO-C3Contracting@dla.mil, along with a separate, unlimited-length price proposal containing a detailed work breakdown structure, labor categories, indirect cost rates, travel, materials, and profit. Awards are expected to be no greater than $10 million with performance periods not exceeding three years, and may be awarded under Firm Fixed Price, Cost Reimbursement, or hybrid contract types based on the proposal’s nature.
