Quick Summary
This is Modification 0005 to Solicitation SPE4A2-26-R-0001 for the Hardware Acquisition Recompete - Customer Direct (HARCD), issued by DLA AVIATION under the DEPT OF DEFENSE. The primary purpose of this modification is to extend the solicitation close date to March 20, 2026. Additionally, responses to previously submitted questions have been attached to this announcement.
Scope of Change
This modification primarily impacts the solicitation timeline and provides critical clarifications:
- Solicitation Close Date Extension: The deadline for proposal submissions has been extended to March 20, 2026.
- Questions & Answers (Q&A) Attachment: A document containing questions from ASRC Federal Facilities Logistics, LLC (AFFL) and the government's responses has been provided.
- VMI/Excess Government Stock Clarification: The government confirmed that "excess government stock" is treated identically to Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI). The Throughput Charge (percentage) applies to VMI in the same manner as to commercially sourced materials. For example, a $500 material price with a 10% throughput fee incurs a $50 charge, and EPA (Economic Price Adjustment) does not apply to this fee.
- Question Submission Deadline Extension: An extension for a question submission deadline was granted to March 20th due to delays in receiving material supplier quotes.
