The proposed contract will be for a total five-year period of performance with a one-year base period, and four, one-year option periods.  Letters expressing interest in subcontracting provided to the contracting officer will be forwarded to the identified manufacturer.  Surplus dealers and small business dealers and distributors having existing stocks of surplus or newly manufactured approved material may respond to the synopsis/solicitation.  Respondents will be required to complete a surplus certificate in accordance with Procurement Note C04 or provide adequate traceability documentation to show the product is acceptable.  In addition, respondents will be required to identify the quantities available and price.  DLA will consider all such responses and may alter the acquisition strategy if purchase of existing surplus or newly-manufactured inventory is in the best interest of the Government.
