17.9300 Scope of subpart.
This subpart prescribes policies for obtaining S&S coverage through the acquisition planning and long-term contracting process. This subpart does not apply to DLA Energy. For DLA Energy contracting, S&S coverage will be specified in the currently-approved DLA Energy Annual Surge Capability Plan (ASCP). Updates to the DLA Energy ASCP will be submitted to J74 for review and approval no later than October 31 each year or more frequently as significant changes occur. The policy defines DLA actions for requirements in DFARS 217.208-70(b) and DFARS PGI 217.202(2). Although the goals remain the same, the procedures in this policy do not apply when establishing Corporate Exigency, Minimum Sustaining Rate, or Industrial Base Maintenance Contracts, Vendor Managed Inventory, Prime Vendor WRM, and/or stock rotation as the alternate strategy to support the Services' go-to-war requirements.
