The purpose of this procurement is to sustain the JTT-IBS by procuring spares for the inventory of the Standard Army Retail Supply System (SARSS). The services include repair/return of repairable items, engineering studies, execution of Engineering Change Proposals, and support for obsolescence parts and host platforms/users.

    Interested contractors should indicate their interest and provide relevant information or documentation to demonstrate their capability to meet the requirements. This includes identifying the contractor as a large or small business, providing production and/or repair data for the identified National Stock Numbers (NSNs), demonstrating availability of production and/or repair facilities and resources, and providing current quality standard certification. Contractors should also provide a capability statement with detailed technical, logistical, and managerial data.

    The location of the production/repair facility should be specified, and the proposed lead time from contract award to production of spares and repair of JTT-IBS items should be indicated. Responses to this announcement must be unclassified and should be submitted via email to the designated Point of Contacts (POCs) by July 30, 2024.
