DECISION DLA item manager's data counterpart in a contracting shop mapping vendors from file-first data must choose Lead time is supplier, depot, / Data-quality using contract vehicle vs. actual buy pattern after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Authorize Lead time is supplier, depot, now; contract vehicle vs. actual buy pattern already has the discriminator after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support. 2. Keep Data-quality in force until contract vehicle vs. actual buy pattern is completed after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support for DLA item manager's data counterpart. 3. Treat contract vehicle vs. actual buy pattern as Lead time is supplier, depot, because both readings appear after a sole-source claim the CAGE file does not support. 4. Refuse a Defense Sustainment close: DLA item manager's data counterpart does not have the decision lead time is supplier, turns on in contract vehicle vs. actual buy pattern.
