Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a market research questionnaire from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, specifically the Strategic Acquisition Programs Directorate (SAPD). It is intended to gather information from potential suppliers regarding items listed in an attached spreadsheet for a potential Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC or LTC) solicitation. The goal is to generate a realistic and beneficial solicitation.

• Company Information: Requires company name, CAGE code, contact details, and signature.
• General Questions: Asks about company size (Large/Small), employee count, SBA classifications (e.g., 8(a), Hubzone), and whether the company is a Manufacturer or Distributor/Dealer. If a distributor, information about the manufacturer is requested.
• Long Term Contract Questions: Inquires about interest in an LTC, preferred contract duration (base period with option years), and potential quantity price breaks or recommended item additions/deletions.
• Cost or Pricing Data: Assesses understanding and willingness to provide certified cost or pricing data, past experience with DLA, and ability to obtain subcontractor data or manufacturer data (for dealers).
• Commercial Questions: Seeks to determine if items are considered Commercial Items per FAR 2.101(b) and if the company can provide evidence of commercial sales to verify price reasonableness (e.g., catalogs, un-redacted invoices, drawings).
• Delivery Questions: Asks about production limitations and potential minimum delivery order quantities or dollar values.
• Additional Information: Provides space for any other input relevant to the acquisition strategy.

Potential suppliers should complete this questionnaire to inform DLA about their capabilities, interest in a long-term contract, and any factors that could influence the solicitation. The responses will help DLA develop a more effective and mutually beneficial contract. Bidders are requested to return the survey within 5 business days of receipt.
