The document outlines the procedures for obtaining Technical Data Packages (TDPs) related to a specific acquisition under the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). Companies must submit requests within seven days of the posting date and must possess an approved Joint Certification Program (JCP) DD2345 status. The TDP is governed by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), prohibiting access to non-U.S. persons and foreign transfers. Interested companies must send a completed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA), their DD2345, and CAGE verification to the specified DLA email. After verifying a company’s JCP status, the TDP will be provided via the DoD SAFE platform. It emphasizes the importance of aligning the NDA signer with the data custodian within the JCP to ensure compliance. This process reflects stringent government requirements to protect sensitive defense-related information.
The document is a Use and Non-Disclosure Agreement connected to a market survey for the procurement of a specific rechargeable battery (NSN 6140-01-534-3856). The Agreement requires the recipient, a company interested in the procurement, to adhere to strict guidelines regarding the handling, use, and protection of technical data and computer software provided by the government.

The document outlines a Sources Sought Notice (SSA) issued by the Defense Logistics Agency-Aberdeen on behalf of the Army Integrated Logistics Supply Center, aiming to identify businesses capable of supplying the BB-2001A/U CSEL Rechargeable Battery. The purpose of the SSA is to assess the capabilities of potential vendors, particularly small businesses, to ensure they can meet the upcoming contract requirements. The SSA contains instructions for submissions, a detailed contractor questionnaire, and outlines the type of information required, including company capabilities and past performance related to the battery. Specific contacts for responses are provided, emphasizing that this announcement is for market research and planning only, and does not constitute a commitment for contract award. The deadline for responses is set for April 25, 2025. Overall, the SSA serves as a preliminary step in the procurement process, facilitating a market assessment to inform future acquisition strategies.
