Supplier Resources

Supplier Survey

SDL values supplier relationships. To establish and maintain supplier relations, we use our Supplier Survey. The information provided on the survey ensures that suppliers are accurately represented on our internal supplier list. If you are a new supplier, or an existing supplier that has been notified that your Supplier Survey is out of date, please complete the survey and return it to suppliers@sdl.usu.edu.

Supplier Registration

SDL is committed to creating an efficient and effective supply chain. We continually add new partners to our supplier list whose capabilities align with our core competencies. We engage with a diverse supplier base and encourage all suppliers to register with us. Understand that any subcontracted parts and materials may require traceability, certification to customer standards, and/or environmental compatibility requirements mandated by NASA or the Department of Defense.

Contracts

SDL has multiple sole source Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts with a variety of Government entities. The Department of Defense and NASA may use these IDIQ contracts to work with SDL within our core competencies. These cost-reimbursable contracts streamline the Government’s ability to access SDL’s expertise.

Our knowledgeable Contracts team is committed to providing a high-quality, timely contracting process to our Government partners. From initial proposal efforts through contract execution, SDL is dedicated to supporting each contract and delivering customer satisfaction. Please submit a contracts inquiry regarding the use of our MDA UARC, GSA, or other IDIQ contracting vehicles.
