About this file
This is a Market Research survey issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support Columbus to gather vendor information about specific items or products. The survey, identified as 1710-006263917, is controlled by DLA Weapons Support and FMVC, with source selection designation and FEDCON dissemination controls applied.
The survey collects comprehensive business and operational information from potential suppliers, including willingness to quote, business size classification (large or small), manufacturer or dealer status, commercial item designation, and compliance with FAR Part 12 or Part 15 requirements. It requests details on sales distribution channels, including percentages of government versus public sales, dealer networks, and electronic data interchange (EDI) capabilities. The survey also gathers operational metrics such as delivery schedules, production quantities, inventory levels, and pricing information, including per-unit prices and factors affecting price increases. Additional information sought includes acceptable FOB and inspection/acceptance terms, availability of price lists and technical documentation, willingness to provide cost and pricing data, CAGE codes, and NSN/part number identification. Respondents are asked to identify their preferred channel for government dealings—either through dealers/distributors or direct government sales—and to provide lists of dealers with geographical locations and CAGE codes if applicable. This market research tool enables DLA to evaluate vendor capability, capacity, and commercial availability before soliciting formal proposals or quotes.
