MRO Southwest Region Zone 1 SPE8E326D0008

The contract SPE8E3-26-D-0008 is a sole-source bridge contract awarded by DLA Troop Support under the Department of Defense to SupplyCore Inc. for the MRO Southwest Region Zone 1, effective June 3, 2026, through April 8, 2027, with a total value not to exceed $75,000,000. This action is justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) and Class Deviation 2026-00017, authorizing other than full and open competition to ensure uninterrupted delivery of critical maintenance, repair, and operations supplies during the transition to a competitively awarded follow-on contract. The supplies include HVAC components, plumbing and electrical materials, tools, construction items, chemical and lubricating agents, perimeter security products, and communication devices essential to sustaining war-fighter readiness across the Southwest Region Zone 1. The previous seven bridge contracts have maintained continuity with the same contractor, establishing SupplyCore as the only responsible source capable of meeting the mission-critical requirements without disruption. The contracting officer, Lauren White, certified the justification on April 23, 2026, with additional certification on May 5, 2026, and the contract is administered from Philadelphia, PA. No formal evaluation factors, line-item pricing, packaging specifications, inspection criteria, or standard FAR clauses were detailed in the documentation, as the award is non-competitive by design. The place of performance is defined solely as Southwest Region Zone 1, with no specific FOB terms, invoicing method, or payment office provided. SupplyCore’s size status, socioeconomic certifications, UEI/CAGE code, and required representations from the offeror are not documented. The contract includes a 60-day implementation period leading into the planned competitive follow-on, which must be awarded by April 8, 2027.
