Assess whether unpriced actions should be stopped (273734)
August 31, 2026
SITUATION After a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support, BOM that still lists a cancelled spec is what vendor-base mapper can touch in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround. Defense Sustainment will live with Fund and move materiel versus Cannibalize or substitute on this Depot Procurement Intelligence file.
DECISION Vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using BOM that still lists a cancelled spec after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. BOM that still lists a cancelled spec reads as Fund and move materiel once a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support is lined up to the same Defense Sustainment population. 2. BOM that still lists a cancelled spec is closer to Cannibalize or substitute after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support; Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Depot Procurement Intelligence extract. 3. Defer a cycle is still live in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec for vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround. 4. BOM that still lists a cancelled spec is missing the fact vendor-base mapper needs after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support; stop this Defense Sustainment close.
ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move BOM that still lists a cancelled spec. 2. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 3. Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read BOM that still lists a cancelled spec against a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support and write the one fact that would move unpriced actions should be stopped for vendor-base mapper.
RECOMMENDATION Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (BOM that still lists a cancelled spec after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support). The follow-on Depot Procurement Intelligence action is what vendor-base mapper does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
COMMAND RETURNS - Bottom-line Defense Sustainment option on unpriced actions should be stopped, then the evidence in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec, then the action for vendor-base mapper - Hypothesis scorecard against BOM that still lists a cancelled spec: supported / rejected / untestable - Owner and next date for vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround - What changes unpriced actions should be stopped if a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support is later withdrawn
