ADDENDUM #5 -- BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT SPO50097-BAA01, AMENDMENT #1 ADDENDUM #5 -- CAMP PENDLETON, CAMP LEJEUNE and Other Surrounding Marine Corps Sites Broad Agency Announcement SP0500-97-BAA01, Amendment #1 The Defense Industrial Supply Center (DISC), Philadelphia, is pursuing innovative methods of providing Customer Oriented Supply Chain Management (COSCM) in support of spare parts at various military centers, bases, camps and posts. This Addendum to the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is issued for two Marine Corps sites: Camp Pendleton and Camp Lejeune. These sites encompass other Marine Corps activities within their respective regions (see Description of Customer Activities). This addendum to the BAA covers 1) supply items currently stocked in pre-expended bins located near their maintenance areas, also known as benchstock, and 2) other items commonly expended in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of land vehicles. Land vehicles may include commercial as well as weapons systems, wheeled as well as tracked, off-road as well as on-road vehicles. This addendum and the following four information sources* constitute the entire Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and should be referred to in conjunction with each other. 1. A database of benchstocked items at Camp Pendleton and surrounding Marine Corps Sites (as provided by Camp Pendleton on floppy disks). This data encompasses requisition data over a two year period. Some items have had no demand during this period of time; 2. A database of benchstocked items requisitioned from DLA sources (as provided by DISC on floppy disks); 3. Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) SP0500-97-BAA01, Amendment #1, Parts Supplier/Parts Integrator, Pages 1 through 5; 4. Proposer Information Packet (PIP), Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) SP0500-97-BAA01, Addendum #5, Camp Pendleton/Camp Lejeune, Pages 1 through 12. * Refer to the General Information section of this Addendum for details on obtaining these sources. SCOPE The types of items the contractor shall be required to provide as part of COSCM are catalogued under Federal Supply Classes (FSCs) 3030, 3110, 3120, 3130, 4010, 4020, 5305, 5306, 5307, 5310, 5315, 5320, 5325, 5330, 5331, 5335, 5339, 5340, 5345, 5350, 5355, 5360, 5364, 5365, 6220, 6240. These items are specific parts associated with land vehicle maintenance, repair and overhaul at Camp Pendleton, Camp Lejeune and related customer sites. These items must conform to specifications, standards, quality conformance, quality certifications, identification and shelf-life requirements as defined by the applicable item description. The resultant contract will have a base period of 2 years with 3 one year option periods, for a maximum of five years. Any award(s) will be made for either both sites combined or each site separately. Customer Expectations The customer's expectations for this initiative include utilizing a total supply chain manager of integrated logistics that provides a 100% fill rate including forecasting, engineering and technical services and provides reliable direct industry surge and sustainment capability. Support is expected to be provided to all Deployed Support Units (DSU) at all locations at all times. It is anticipated that adopting this program will result in the reduction of total logistics costs, the elimination of redundancy and simplification of current procedures and a reduction in the time required to accomplish the customer's overhaul and maintenance mission. The vendor may also be required to supply related items that have not been defined as "benchstock" on an as needed bases, based on Customer request for support. DESCRIPTION OF CUSTOMER ACTIVITIES The following description of customer activities provides a simple outline of current operations at Camp Pendleton and Camp Lejeune. Prospective vendors should attend the site visits which are scheduled for both locations in order to obtain more information and clarification about each activity and surrounding sites. Each Marine Corps site will also provide maps of various activities at the bases and clarify their expectations of supply support resulting from this solicitation. The mission of both bases is to maintain combat ready units for expeditionary deployment. In general, both bases are supported by an Intermediate Maintenance Unit (IMU) which consists of Electronics, Engineering, General Support, Motor Transport and Ordnance departments. The IMU performs repair and general support to equipment utilized by the 60-70 Marine Corps units at Camp Pendleton and 104 Marine Corps units at Camp Lejeune located throughout the base. These units also perform their own repairs but refer more complex tasks to the IMU. It is anticipated that approximately 50% of the units at both bases would be initiatially supported by this effort as well as the IMUs.
