59--ANTENNA

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Contract SPE7M526P4117 to ACCESS ELECTRONICS LLC, a small business and women-owned small business with CAGE code 4GCC4, for the procurement of two units of antenna NSN 5985-01-565-1241 at a firm fixed price of $42,000.00. The award was issued on July 13, 2026, under solicitation SPE7M5-26-T-233W, with delivery required by December 9, 2027. The contract is FOB Origin, meaning title and risk transfer to the government upon shipment from the contractor’s facility in Estero, Florida, while inspection and acceptance occur at the government’s destination location. Payment will be processed through the Wide Area WorkFlow system, with the designated payment office code SL4701 and accountable DoDAACs aligned with government forms. The contract includes mandatory compliance with several Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, including those requiring veteran employment reporting, sustainable product procurement, and prohibitions against sourcing from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Additionally, the contractor must meet CMMC Level 2 cybersecurity self-assessment requirements and adhere to the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements for all deliverables. Packaging and marking must comply with MIL-STD-129 for labeling, MIL-STD-130 for Unique Item Identification, and ASTM D3951 for non-hazardous materials, while hazardous materials must meet IP025 standards per MIL-STD-313. Palletization must follow RP001 DLA packaging guidelines. The antenna is designated as a Critical Application Item, implying strict performance and reliability expectations. The Unique Item Identifier (UII) is required due to the unit acquisition cost exceeding $5,000 per item, necessitating compliant marking on each unit. Invoicing is exclusively through WAWF under DFARS requirements, and no contract modifications or options are permitted. The contracting officer is Lea Dawn Robertson, with Jessica Tackett serving as the local administrative contact; no Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative is identified. The absence of evaluation factor weights or a stated award methodology suggests a potential Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, though this is not formally confirmed. The contractor’s representation as a Small Business and Women-Owned Small Business triggers compliance obligations under FAR 5
