ADJUSTING TOOL, COMB

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded contract SPE7L326P0521 to Burke Products Inc. on July 21, 2026, for the procurement of 448 units of the Adjusting Tool, Comb (NSN 1005-01-458-7004) under NAICS code 332216. The original contract value was $11,200 at $25 per unit, with a delivery deadline of March 31, 2026, but the order was subsequently canceled due to the contractor’s failure to perform, resulting in a zero-dollar contract value. The place of performance is listed as Burke Products Inc.’s address in Xenia, Ohio, and the contracting office is DLA Land and Maritime in Columbus, Ohio, with Contracting Officer Lorde Daring as the point of contact. No Contracting Officer’s Representative or technical oversight personnel were identified. The contract format appears to be a standard purchase order with an administrative modification (P00001) issued to reflect the cancellation. No detailed specification documents, inspection criteria, packaging or marking requirements, or applicable MIL-STDs were provided in the materials. The solicitation did not include defined evaluation factors, trade-off methodology, or socioeconomic certifications, and no representations or certifications from the offeror beyond CAGE code 27361 are documented. Payment instructions, invoicing procedures, and accounting data such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN are referenced only via a blank continuation sheet. No options, special requirements, security clearances, or OCI provisions were included. Submission requirements allowed for traditional methods including mailed forms or telegrams, with no electronic submission protocols specified. The contract’s administrative nature and lack of technical, quality, or logistical specifications indicate it was a straightforward, low-value supply acquisition that ultimately failed to meet performance obligations.
