SUBJECT: Updated Standard Procurement System Sunset Date

The purpose of this memorandum is to establish a new sunset date for the Standard Procurement System (SPS) for the Department of Defense. The Department's updated goal to sunset SPS is that no contracts, agreements, orders or solicitations be awarded, through SPS, after September 30, 2023. Use of SPS for changes to documents issued prior to September 30, 2023, is expected to continue until September 30, 2026.

Although Department of Defense Components committed to meeting the original SPS sunset dates set forth in the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment memorandum, "Updated Standard Procurement System Sunset Date," dated January 12, 2017 (Attachment A), only the Air Force has completed the transition from SPS to a new contracting capability.

The Army and Navy have selected a replacement solution and are actively executing acquisition programs that will enable the transition from SPS in accordance with the new September 30, 2023, sunset date. If either the Army or Navy require continued support for their use of SPS (system maintenance, software licenses, and help desk support) beyond September 30, 2023, they will be required to provide funding to the Defense Logistic Agency's SPS Joint Program Management Office.

The Defense Logistics Agency point of contact is Ms. Jackie Bostic, at (571) 363-8725 or jackie.bostic@dla.mil. My point of contact for this action is Ms. LeAntha Sumpter, Defense Pricing and Contracting, at (703) 697-4401 or leantha.d.sumpter.civ@mail.mil.
