Notice of Proposed Solicitation for Cooperative Agreement 
Applications (SCAA)

AGENCY: Defense Logistics Agency, DOD.

ACTION: Proposed solicitation for cost sharing cooperative agreement 
applications.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) executes the DoD 
Procurement Technical Assistance Program (PTAP) by awarding cost 
sharing cooperative agreements to assist eligible entities in 
establishing or maintaining procurement technical assistance centers 
(PTACs) pursuant to chapter 142 of title 10, United States Code. 
Eligible entities include States, local governments, private nonprofit 
organizations, tribal organizations and economic enterprises.
    In order to maintain continuity of the program, DLA will be issuing 
a follow-on to the Solicitation for Cooperative Agreement Applications 
(SCAA) issued on April 7, 2008. This SCAA, when issued, will govern the 
submission of applications to be considered for base year cost sharing 
cooperative agreement awards in Fiscal Year 2011. This SCAA will also 
allow for two option period awards in Fiscal Years 2012 and 2013. A 
proposed version of this SCAA, which contains a number of changes from 
the April 7, 2008 SCAA, will be posted for comment on or about May 5, 
2010 at http://www.dla.mil/db/ptap.asp (select ``Information for PTAP 
funding recipients'' at the bottom of the page). Printed copies are not 
available for distribution.
    Written comments regarding this proposed SCAA may be submitted via 
mail to Headquarters, Defense Logistics Agency, Office of Small 
Business Programs (Attn: Grants Officer), 8725 John J. Kingman Road, 
Suite 1127, Fort Belvoir, VA 22060-6221 or via e-mail to [email protected].
    All comments must be received by June 4, 2010, for them to receive 
consideration. It is anticipated that the final SCAA will be posted on 
the DLA Web site by June 30, 2010. A notice will be posted at 
Grants.gov announcing the SCAA along with details on how to submit 
applications.

    Note:  Eligible entities meeting the definition of 10 U.S.C 
2411(1)(D) (tribal organizations and economic enterprises) who are 
either current recipients of cooperative agreements under the 
program or who wish to apply to establish a new program need not 
apply under this SCAA. A separate SCAA will be issued in Fiscal Year 
2011 for both the continuation of existing and the establishment of 
new Native American PTACs.
