BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT REVISION #2 -- ADDENDUM NO. 9 BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT SP0500-97-BAA01 (AMENDMENT 2) ADDENDUM NO.9 This revision incorporates the following changes to Addendum #9: 1. Reference "Scope," Paragraph #4, shall read as follows: DISC intends to award a contract to a single integrator for the logistics support of the two (2) MCLBs and BIC unless a determination can be made that employing more that one integrator can attain the overall purpose of this Addendum to the BAA. Concepts that accommodate the fullest support at all sites are preferred. At a minimum, DISC intends to award to a single integrator for the two MCLBs.

Strategic alliances and partnering arrangements among suppliers are encouraged. 2.
