The contract is for the procurement of an antenna subassembly under solicitation SPE7M1-26-U-4807 issued by the Department of Defense through the Maritime Supply Chain, with a proposed delivery date of 256 days from award and FOB origin terms. The estimated quantity is 34 units, though this is non-firm and may not be purchased; the guaranteed minimum is five units, with a maximum contract value of $350,000. The item is identified by NSN 5985-01-583-2160 and requires compliance with rigorous packaging and labeling standards, primarily MIL-STD-129 for all marking, barcoding, and unit packaging, which supersedes commercial standards like ASTM D3951. Hazardous materials must be packaged per TQ Requirement IP025 and labeled in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.1200, while palletization must adhere to RP001, the DLA Packaging Requirements for Procurement. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, and the contractor must ensure all shipments meet DLA’s Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, which takes priority over any referenced commercial specifications. The contract imposes extensive cybersecurity and compliance obligations, including mandatory implementation of NIST SP 800-171 controls and a CMMC Level 2 Self-Assessment. Clause 52.240-93 and 252.240-7997 require safeguarding of covered contractor information systems and a DoD assessment of compliance, while 252.223-7006 and 252.223-7008 prohibit storage of toxic materials and hexavalent chromium. Transport of supplies by sea requires the use of U.S.-flag vessels and submission of ocean bills of lading. The contractor must comply with employment provisions including equal opportunity, combating trafficking, and employment eligibility verification, and must represent small business status before option exercise under 52.219-28. Invoicing is conducted exclusively through WAWF, and the government retains the right to levy payments for outstanding debts. All submissions must be electronically filed via DIBBS by the August 6, 2026 deadline, with no formal attachments listed; instead, compliance documentation such as Material Safety Data Sheets and CMMC assessments are required as part of the fulfillment process
