Before a contract to deliver supplies* to the Department of Defense is made, the Secretary of Defense must ensure that, while officials assess the best source considering quality, price, delivery, and other factors, they review each supply item's availability and cost (1) through the Defense supply system and (A) under standard Government supply contracts if regulations identify its category as potentially available under one, and (2) its procurement history and description, including a picture, drawing, diagram, or other graphic representation when needed for an adequate description.
The Secretary of Defense shall ensure that before a contract for the delivery of supplies* to the Department of Defense is entered into—
when the appropriate officials of the Department are making an assessment of the most advantageous source for acquisition* of the supplies (considering quality, price, delivery, and other factors), there is a review of the availability and cost of each item of supply—
through the supply system of the Department of Defense; and
under standard Government supply contracts, if the item is in a category of supplies defined under regulations of the Secretary of Defense as being potentially available under a standard Government supply contract; and
there is a review of both the procurement history of the item and a description of the item, including, when necessary for an adequate description of the item, a picture, drawing, diagram, or other graphic representation of the item.
