The attached list of NSNs are the items that have been identified for this current action.  If other NSNs are subsequently added, as defined by the terms of the contract, they will be synopsized separately.

"It is the Government's intent to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) on DLA Internet Bid Board System at https://www.dibbs.bsm.dla.mil/RFP for sole source Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts; therefore, if any non-OEM source is interested in any of the NSNs, please notify the Contracting Officer prior to the synopsis closing date.
