Dimension scores
Total
- 12/100
Technical Fit
- 2/20
The requirement is a small-quantity OEM cable assembly supply (NSN 5995016031567) with an approved source (92180 TRU-11306-1). This is outside Trace’s core capabilities (SATCOM integration, CDS/NSA TI, MPE, managed services) per company_profile.txt; NAICS 334419 is listed but at lower BD priority.
Past Performance
- 2/20
Trace’s cited past performance centers on DISA/DoD enterprise services, SATCOM, MPE, C5ISR, and SE&I, not DLA Aviation OEM parts supply or NSN-based distribution. No evidence of relevant DLA Aviation commodity/OEM supply contracts in the company profile.
Vehicles / Contract Access
- 5/10
This appears to be a full-and-open RFQ on SAM (no set-aside, no restricted vehicle indicated). There is no vehicle barrier, but also no prime-vehicle advantage for Trace.
Competitive Position
- 1/15
The notice specifies an approved source (92180 TRU-11306-1). Without being the OEM or an authorized/approved distributor for this exact part, Trace is non-competitive. No differentiators (e.g., Starshield reseller, NSA TI) apply to this commodity buy.
Risk
- 1/15
Very high risk of non-compliance and non-award due to approved-source restriction and lack of drawings/specs for alternates. Small-quantity, price-driven RFQ further limits competitiveness.
Strategic Value
- 0/10
Transactional, low-dollar, commodity part buy in a lower-priority NAICS with no meaningful agency relationship leverage or strategic expansion potential for Trace.
Compliance
- 1/10
No set-aside barrier, but the ‘Approved source is 92180 TRU-11306-1’ requirement is a de facto compliance gate Trace likely cannot meet. No drawings/specs to qualify alternates.
Concerns
- Approved-source restriction prevents offering non-OEM/alternate items.
- Inability to obtain OEM/approved-source unit or traceability documentation.
- Low-margin, price-competitive commodity buy with small quantity (10 EA).
- Limited information due to no specs/drawings; potential packaging/traceability stipulations common to DLA not visible in metadata.
- Short response timeline relative to sourcing lead times.
Teaming opportunities
- Lack of OEM/approved-source distribution relationship for TRU-11306-1 (CAGE 92180).
- No established DLA Aviation parts distribution capability or DIBBS-focused supply chain for this NSN.
- Need for quality/traceability documentation and packaging compliance typical of DLA parts buys.
Competitive position
- If pursued via an approved distributor partner, emphasize rapid sourcing and compliant traceability; however, this is outside Trace’s core and not recommended.
Bid/No bid factors
- Approved source required: 92180 TRU-11306-1; Trace is not the OEM nor documented as an approved distributor.
- NAICS 334419 is lower BD priority for Trace and outside core capability lanes.
- Commodity/OEM part buy with no specs/drawings and minimal strategic value.
- Very small quantity suggests low ceiling and limited ROI for BD effort.
