Things to watch (10)
From the version posted Oct 15, 2026.
- Serious: Limited to approved sources only. The restriction names Boeing, Parker-Hannifin and Boeing Distribution Services; any other business must have its source approved before award, and the buyer may not delay the solicitation for it.
- Serious: Source approval takes a separate Army review. A Source Approval Request goes to the Army's Systems Readiness Directorate and may need extra data, testing or plant visits at your expense.
- Worth checking: Quantity is only estimated; guaranteed minimum is 7 Each. Estimated orders total 20 Each over five years, but the Government must order only 7 Each and may order nothing more.
Show all 10Show fewer
- Worth checking: Technical drawings and specifications not in the text read. Section C only says PUMP,TRANSMISSION, and the provision on examining specifications and drawings has no location filled in; ask the buyer how to get the technical data.
- Worth checking: Price all five years; unbalanced pricing can be rejected. Leaving out a line item can make the quote non-responsive, and prices that look unbalanced across years may be rejected.
- Worth checking: Cost breakdown data may be requested. If requested, you must give a breakdown of all cost elements including profit, and failing to do so makes the quote non-responsive.
- Minor: Quote must stay valid 180 days. All proposal documents must remain valid for at least 180 days after you submit them.
- Minor: Unique item identification markings required. Each item needs a permanent unique identifier, which adds marking work and cost.
- Minor: Year 1 delivery terms differ from later years. For the first order the contractor pays transportation to the depot; for later orders the Government pays and F.O.B. origin applies.
- Minor: Rated order with a notice deadline stated two ways. Section A says to tell DLA within 15 days if a rated order cannot be met; Section H says 15 working days.
