These electrodes are managed by Qualified Parts List<\/a> (QPL), which is a restricted list of companies that can supply the item. There are a few steps to getting on a QPL, but the benefits are the ability to compete on items where there are often very few suppliers.<\/p>\n

There is no set quantity in this solicitation, but DLA provides annual estimates for demand. 5977-00-464-8433 has an annual demand estimate of 1,120 boxes.\u00a0 5977-00-464-8496 has annual demand of 1,000 boxes.\u00a0 The government will issue periodic delivery orders against this contract over the three year term.<\/p>\n

The military has technical documentation on these electrodes so companies could compete.\u00a0 Since getting on the QPL can take some time, the due date on this solicitation is longer than usual.\u00a0 All responses to this RFQ are due by August 31, 2021.<\/p>\n
