D-F_Consolidation_SPRDL1-24-R-0094.pdf

This is a Memorandum for File documenting a Consolidation Determination for a competitive solicitation (SPRDL1-24-R-0094) by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for three National Stock Numbers (NSNs) of wheel assemblies, pneumatic tire. The solicitation will establish a five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract supporting multiple weapons systems, specifically for 14-20-ton Vehicle programs including M172, M343, M870, and M872 series. The contract consolidates three previous separate contracts, all previously awarded to Pomp's Tire Service, with a total estimated value exceeding $2 million over the contract period.

The consolidation aims to achieve multiple efficiencies, including a reliable and consistent supply source, reduced administrative lead times, lower administrative costs, and workload reduction by eliminating multiple separate contract actions. Market research confirmed these wheel assemblies are commercial items, and while a technical review found no adverse impact on small businesses, a small business subcontracting plan will be required since the contract will exceed $750,000 and be performed within the United States. The contract specialist determined that the consolidation is necessary and justified, with alternative approaches like individual contracts or separate solicitations being less beneficial compared to the proposed consolidated acquisition strategy.
