BATTERY, NONRECHARGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, identified by CAGE code 4U407, for a single line item of two non-rechargeable batteries, with a total contract value of $14.28. The order, issued on July 17, 2026, and identified as SPE7LX26F72Q2, was processed under FAR 52.213-1 Fast Payment Procedures, indicating a streamlined, low-value procurement typically used for administrative efficiency. The item is identified by NSN/Part number 6135009857845, and while the unit of measure is listed as “PG,” it is likely an error and should read “EA” given the nature of the product. Delivery is FOB origin from the contractor’s facility at 2100 N Greene St, Greenville, NC, with final destination being APO AP 96213-2166, via intermediate logistics in Busan, South Korea. The government assumes all transportation responsibility and risk upon shipment from the origin point, and inspection and acceptance will occur at the destination by government personnel. The contractor is a certified small business, as indicated by its affirmative representation in Block 11 of the solicitation, triggering compliance obligations under FAR Part 19 and SBA reporting requirements. The order is DPAS rated under 15 CFR 700, which imposes priority handling requirements on materials and supply chains, though no specific MIL-STD packaging or preservation standards are referenced. Payment will be processed electronically via EDI through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service at Columbus, Ohio, using payment code SL4701 and appropriation data 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189. The contracting officer representative is Jeffrey Dixius, with no designated COR or COTR identified. Modifications to the base contract include P00014, P00020, P00021, and P00032, suggesting prior amendments to the underlying indefinite-delivery contract, which is presumed to be an IDIQ vehicle under standard DLA practices. No additional clauses, attachments, or technical specifications beyond the item description and delivery parameters were provided in the documentation.
