BATTERY, NONRECHARGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, CAGE 4U407, for the supply of 2,000 units of nonrechargeable batteries, NSN 6135009857845, at a total contract value of $14.28. The award, issued on July 14, 2026, is a firm fixed-price transaction with no option quantities or pricing flexibility, reflecting a low-value, streamlined procurement. Delivery is required by July 21, 2026, to a military destination in Busan, Korea, with FOB origin terms meaning the government assumes responsibility for transportation costs from the contractor’s location. The contractor is certified as a small business, triggering compliance with small business subcontracting reporting requirements under FAR 19.502-2 and FAR 52.219-8. The contract invokes Fast Payment procedures under FAR 52.213-1 and mandates electronic invoicing through Wide Area WorkFlow in accordance with DFARS 252.232-7003, with payment processed through DFAS using appropriation code SL4701 and accounting line BX: 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189. Packaging and marking must comply with the referenced contract modifications P00014, P00020, P00021, and P00032, including barcoded shipping manifests and labeling per the schedule, though specific MIL-STD requirements are not detailed. The item must meet DoD unit-of-issue standards and is covered under a DPAS-rated order, ensuring priority handling under 15 CFR 700. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, with the government retaining final authority. No contracting officer’s representative is identified; all administrative and contracting inquiries must be directed to Jeffrey Dixius or the designated post-award contact. The award follows a non-competitive, low-risk procurement likely under an IDIQ vehicle, with no competitive evaluation factors documented, and no technical performance specifications beyond the NSN and part number provided.
