FA452826Q0009

Question 1: Because this is a total small-business set-aside for a brand-name Oshkosh manufactured product, does the solicitation include an individual waiver of the nonmanufacturer rule, or has the

Government determined that the nonmanufacturer rule does not apply to this acquisition?

This acquisition does not meet the criteria to apply the Nonmanufacturer Rule (NMR);

accordingly, RFO Clause 52.219-33 “Non-Manufacturer Rule” (CD 2026-O0037, 24 July 2026) does not apply to this acquisition.

Question 2: If no waiver applies, may a small-business reseller satisfy the requirement by supplying the specified genuine Oshkosh part?

The Non-Manufacturer Rule (NMR) does not apply to this acquisition; therefore, Small business offerors may satisfy this requirement by supplying the specified brand-name, item.

Question 3: Will DFARS 252.211-7003 require item unique identification marking and IUID Registry data for CLIN 0001 if the unit price is $5,000 or more?

Yes. In accordance with R-DFARS 252.211-7003, Item Unique Identification (IUID) marking and registry data submission are required for CLIN 0001 if the final unit acquisition cost is $5,000 or more. The respective fill-in data for the clause clarifying the IUID requirement has been amended.

Question 4: The solicitation delivery schedule lists 341 Bomber Boulevard, while the salient characteristics list 309 Summit Drive. Should offerors quote FOB-destination freight using 309 Summit

Drive, Minot AFB, ND 58705, with final routing instructions provided after award?

No. Vendors should quote FOB-Destination freight using the official "Ship To" delivery address listed on page 5 of the solicitation: 341 Bomber Blvd, Minot AFB, ND 58705-5001. Both 341

Bomber Blvd and 309 Summit Drive are active facilities for the 5th Logistics Readiness Squadron

(5 LRS) at Minot AFB. Final offloading and local routing instructions within the 5 LRS footprint will be provided by the Contracting Officer post-award. This minor address routing difference has no material impact on overall freight pricing to Minot Air Force Base installation proper. Any potential awardee will not be granted a post-award price adjustment for the minor difference in physical street addresses.
