DLA Aviation, Richmond is in the process of conducting market research for the items listed in the attached Excel spreadsheet, as we are considering a solicitation and subsequent award of an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC)*. A similar effort was attempted previously however the scope has changed slightly. Therefore, we are asking that you fill out the attached market survey to the best of your knowledge so that we can generate a realistic and beneficial solicitation. Should any of the survey questions not apply (Cost or Pricing Data, First Article Testing, etc.), please skip over that section. Request that you return the survey to Tony Kemp via e-mail (tony.kemp@dla.mil) by March 10, 2021 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST). Please feel free to contact above named via E-mail or telephone (804-536-5691) if you have any additional questions concerning this project. We sincerely appreciate your time, and thank you for providing this information. Please be advised, Mr. Kemp has no authority to contractually bind or obligate the U.S. Government. This correspondence is for information gathering purposes and does not constitute a solicitation. * IQC: These contracts are intended for use with items for which recurring demands are anticipated, and as a means of reducing the time and expense required to solicit and make repetitive individual awards. Establishment of an IQC (called a “Basic Contract”) will permit future Purchase Requests to be awarded by issuing a delivery order (DO) against the basic contract. All terms, conditions, and pricing are negotiated/awarded up front with the basic, allowing the DO(s) to be issued quickly. The items on the contract will be ordered on each DO within stated minimum and maximum quantities, and on an as needed basis. The delivery order quantities are estimated based on previous and forecasted demands, and the contractor will be guaranteed a minimum quantity as specified in the contract.
