Strategic Material Sourcing (SMS) Presented by Director, Procurement Process Support Directorate Program Overview 14 November 2007
Focus of the SMS Program DLA directed by OSD to develop Enterprise strategy to reduce inventory by $340 M by end of FY 2011 The Strategic Material Sourcing (SMS) program is DLA’s umbrella initiative designed to facilitate the Agency’s efforts to meet this directive by: Placing items of strategic importance on Long Term Contracts (LTCs) Developing initiatives to reduce depot inventory levels Reducing Administrative and Production Lead Times on these items Adopting best commercial practices wherever possible to Include developing strategic Alliances with Key Suppliers, such as, Strategic Supplier Alliances with our Sole Source Suppliers
Goal of SMS • Increase Number of NSNs covered by Long Term Contracts • Increase Percent of Long Term Contract Obligations • Lower Inventory Levels/Cost • Lower Administrative and Production Lead Times .
How Are SMS NSNs Determined? Total DLA Hardware NSN Population: 3.9 million • Sales Drivers – Pareto (80/20 percent rule) based on last 2 years of sales data • Demand Drivers - Pareto (80/20 percent rule) based on last 2 years of demand data • NMCS – NSNs which have historically impacted readiness • Warstoppers – Needed by the Services in case of wars or other contingencies • Readiness Items– EC 1 WSIC items with PLT>179 and at least 1 Back Order in past 3 years • Critical Items - Critical item code ‘Y’ with PLT>179 and at least 1 Back Order Demand in past 3 years • High Frequency Items - 100 or more annual requisitions in the past 12 months • Supply Chain Focus Items- Items important to initiatives and directives the Supply Chains are responsible for managing. Focus on SMS: 335,715
SMS Annual Demand Value (ADV) & SMS Annual Demand Frequency (ADF) ADV/ADF illustrates that the most strategic items are being placed on LTC

Performance Small Business Perspective Transformation Culture Director, Office of Small Business Programs (800) 262-3272
Performance Transformation Culture Office of Small Business Programs • Our Function: • Represent the interests of the small business • community as new initiatives are developed • Look for opportunities for small business, • HUBZone, 8(a) and Service Disabled set-asides • If the role of Prime Contractor is not indicated, • support and develop contractual language to assure • best possible representation as subcontractors • Do all of this while remembering that Customer • Support is paramount
The Role of Long Term Contracts (LTCs) Performance Transformation Culture • Long term contracts provide many DSCC benefits: • Significantly reduces administrative lead times • Reduces manpower requirements • Offers stronger relationships between the • contractor and DSCC • Frequently provides enhanced customer support • LTCs can be more risky for the contractor: • Escalating material or other costs may not be • adequately covered in the out years • LTCs can reduce the number of competitors over • time
How Set-aside Determinations are Made Performance Transformation Culture • Historical experience – how many small businesses • are able to provide the parts and related services • (Rule of Two) • Methods of determining interest/capability • Industry Day • Market Survey – Very Important!!!! • Direct feedback to: • Contracting Officer • Office of Small Business Programs • Possible visits to potential contractors
Performance Transformation Culture How to Compete? • Small Businesses interested in acting as Prime • Contractors on larger initiatives should: • Gain a full understanding of the requirement • Assure they have the “right stuff” • Impeccable past performance • Adequate financing • Strong support staff including Customer Service • Comparable experience – even if on a smaller scale • Robust IT infrastructure for parts acquisition, • forecasting, item management, etc • Realistic pricing • Warehousing and distribution capabilities • Partners, if needed
Performance Transformation Culture Things to Consider • Mentor – Protégé Programs • Both the DoD or DLA Programs offer many benefits for • the mentor and the protégé • Start out on smaller initiatives and developing a • track record of exceptional performance and • customer support • Developing strong, positive relationships with key • contracting personnel • Become the “go to guy” when support is critically • needed
Little Things are Important Performance Transformation Culture • When submitting a proposal be sure to: • Read and understand the requirements • Adequately address each part of the solicitation • Remember neatness and accuracy count – this is your • chance to show the evaluation team that your are fully • capable • Be timely • Read and re-read your proposal – make sure that what • you say in one part is not contradicted in another
Performance Transformation Culture Final Thoughts • Ask for clarification if you are not sure • Make good use of the time with the contracting team: • Have a strong “pitch” • Emphasize what you can do for the Customer • Offer to host a site visit • Be a problem solver • Never underestimate the importance of a strong • Market Research response! • Utilize the Office of Small Business Programs • The better we understand what you can do, the more • likely we can successfully set-aside future acquisitions

TINA Requirements Under the Truth in Negotiations Act (TINA) in DoD Presented by Director, Procurement Process Support Directorate November 14, 2007
Agenda TINA Background TINA Requirements for DoD DLA Policy Changes
Truth in Negotiation Act (TINA) Background Truth in Negotiations Act (TINA) Passed in 1962 Requires cost or pricing data for use in negotiating contracts and modifications. Certify in writing that, the cost or pricing data submitted are accurate, complete, and current.
What has Occurred? 2001, Contracting Officer Determinations of Price Reasonableness When Cost or Pricing Data Were Not Obtained (DOD-IG Report): CO’s lacked valid exceptions and failed to require data in 32% of contracting actions reviewed. Inadequate documentation to support price reasonableness in 86% of actions reviewed. CO’s did not challenge items categorized as commercial and accepted catalog prices/price lists without analysis. 2002, DOD Needs Better Guidance on Granting Waivers for Certified Cost or Pricing Data (GAO Report): Regarding type of data and analyses and outside assistance. Whether waivers should be granted in first place.
Recent TINA Changes for DoD Section 817 of Public Law 107-314 (FY 2003 NDAA) established stricter TINA requirements for DoD--- Waivers now limited to the most exceptional cases: DoD can no longer waive the requirement for cost or pricing data solely because the price can be determined fair and reasonable without the data (therefore FAR 15.403-1(c)(4) does not apply to DoD). CO’s must request the cost data and the Certificate of Certified Cost and Pricing Data. If the company cannot comply, a Waiver may be granted but all of following must be met: 1. Property or service cannot reasonably be obtained without granting the waiver; 2. Price(s) can be determined fair and reasonable without the submission of cost or pricing data; and 3. There are demonstrated benefits to granting the waiver. Required Congressional reporting requirements for actions over $15 million.
2007 Actions Affecting DLA February 20, 2007 – Senate Armed Services Committee letter to the USD(AT&L reiterating the statutory requirements from the FY 2003 NDAA). March 23, 2007 – Director, Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy (DPAP), memorandum to Departmental Deputy Assistant Secretaries and the Directors of Defense Agencies emphasizing that the standard to be met for granting a TINA waiver is extremely high .July 19, 2007 – DLA’s PROCLTR 07-10 specified actions to be taken when an offeror or contractor refuses to provide cost or pricing data. Implemented IAW DFARS PGI 215.403-1(c)(4)(A)(1). October 2007 - DLA’s new PROCLTR provided detailed guidance to incorporate PROCLTR 07-10 and other TINA-related procedures into DLAD.
What PROCLTR 07-10 Covered Implemented DFARS guidance for FY 03 NDAA: The three findings required for an HCA to grant an exceptional circumstances exception (waiver), DPAP guidance that a waiver should no longer be granted to a contractor business segment that normally performs Government contracts subject to, and in compliance with, TINA, and That pending and actual waivers granted should be reported to our DLA J-73 focal point at the earliest possible date, to enable timely reporting of these waivers to OSD immediately following the end of each fiscal quarterly period.
Summary • DLA must comply with statutory and policy guidance • Fair and Reasonable Pricing is a critical component for success • High Visibility item for Congress and OSD • We need your cooperation!
