Pre-RFPSupplies & MaterialsDetected Aug 1, 2026

Sellers of surplus management, resale, recycling, and hauling services can expect a structured review and may be able to advise on asset inventory, compliance, and recovery of value before a process is set.

Item is referenced by policy code DN, indicating a formal surplus disposal process will be reviewed.
