Dimension scores
Total
- 14/100
Technical Fit
- 2/20
Requirement is for an approved-source cable assembly (NSN 5995-01-644-7566). This is commodity manufacturing/supply, outside Trace’s core SATCOM integration/CDS/SE&I/IT O&M lanes per company profile.
Past Performance
- 2/20
No evidence of Trace past performance in DLA Aviation approved-source parts supply or cable assembly manufacturing. Company profile lists programmatic IT/SATCOM/C2 contracts, not commodity part supply.
Vehicles / Contract Access
- 5/10
Standalone RFQ on SAM (not restricted to a vehicle Trace holds as prime). Not on a Trace prime vehicle; access is via open RFQ, but set-aside applies.
Competitive Position
- 1/15
Notice specifies approved sources ("Approved sources are 68999 AE12435-408-327; 76301 74-870408-327"). Trace is not identified as an approved source; this strongly disadvantages Trace vs OEM/authorized distributors.
Risk
- 3/15
High execution/compliance risk: approved-source requirement with no drawings/specs available; Total Small Business Set-Aside with Trace’s SB status under NAICS 335931 unverified; low quantity, price-sensitive buy.
Strategic Value
- 0/10
Minimal strategic value: small-quantity commodity part buy, outside core lanes, unlikely to advance priority vehicles or mission areas.
Compliance
- 1/10
Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5) under NAICS 335931 with Trace’s SB eligibility not verified; additionally, the approved-source constraint suggests Trace may not meet source approval. Compliance risk is near-disqualifying.
Concerns
- Approved-source requirement limits suppliers; Trace not listed as approved.
- Small Business eligibility under NAICS 335931 is unverified in available data.
- No technical specs/drawings provided, complicating alternate-item approvals.
- Low quantity and commodity nature increases price competition and reduces differentiation.
Teaming opportunities
- Access to OEM/approved-source supply chain for listed part numbers.
- If Trace is not small under NAICS 335931, lack of an eligible small prime partner (and teaming may not be practical for a simple RFQ).
Competitive position
- No win themes recorded.
Bid/No bid factors
- Total Small Business Set-Aside; eligibility uncertain from provided materials.
- Approved sources explicitly named; Trace not included.
- Outside Trace core capability focus; low strategic value.
