ACETYLENE, TECHNICAL

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under basic contract SPE4A625D0024 to Inchcape Shipping Services Dubai LLC, identified by CAGE code 1NSLW, for the procurement of 45,000 cylinders of technical-grade acetylene with NSN 6830015589658, at a total contract price of $889.65. The award was issued on July 17, 2026, and the delivery is required by August 3, 2026, with performance and receipt directed to APO AE 09309-9998 USA, and alternatively to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price delivery order, consistent with a lowest-price technically acceptable approach, and all terms and conditions are governed by the basic contract. The item must comply with DLA Procurement Notes C19 and C20, which dictate transportation, packaging, marking, and hazardous material handling requirements, including specific labeling with the TCN FB480461970028, RDD 777, transport priority 2, and supplier address code YBZ240. Packaging and marking are to adhere to standard DoD and DLMS protocols, though explicit MIL-STD references are absent. Payment is to be processed through DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, with Marie Harrison serving as the certifying officer and Steve Edge as the local administrator; invoicing is expected to be voucher-based. No option quantities, modifications, or special requirements beyond the basic contract and procurement notes are specified, and no socioeconomic certifications, security clearances, or key personnel clauses are documented. The awardee, a foreign entity, is subject to standard defense logistics procedures with no additional reporting or compliance obligations beyond execution of the delivery as outlined.
