    The document outlines responses to industry questions regarding procurement processes related to the CECOM WWF Support program under a 2020 RFP. Key points clarify that materials valued at approximately $128M are acquired via a combination of contractor systems and government accounts, specifically using DODAAC funding. Procurement is predominantly managed by the contractor, who is responsible for ordering, receiving, and storing parts, although some sites may support others as necessary. The fixed fee cap for the new SA IDIQ contract is yet to be determined, and potential incentive fees for exceeding performance requirements will be explored in a future RFI.
