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 Solicitation for Cooperative Agreement Applications (SCAA) for tribal 
organizations and economic enterprises, as defined by 10 U.S.C. 
2411(1)(D) (a separate SCAA was previously issued for other eligible 
entities; see 75 FR 24663). This SCAA will be a follow-on to SCAA 
issued on April 7, 2008 and to the SCAA issued on May 5, 2009. When 
issued, the SCAA will govern the submission of applications to be 
considered for base year cost sharing cooperative agreement awards in 
Fiscal Year 2011. The 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 previous solicitations, will be posted for comment on or about 
February 15, 2011 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 March 22, 2011 for them to receive 
consideration. It is anticipated that the final SCAA will be posted on 
the DLA Web site by April 4, 2011. A notice will be posted at 
Grants.gov announcing the SCAA along with details on how to submit 
applications.
