The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under basic contract SPE7M1-17-D-0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center (CAGE 4U407), a small business with Small Disadvantaged Business and Women-Owned Small Business status, for 30 non-rechargeable batteries (NSN 6135013985922) at a total price of $513.30. The order, issued as SPE7LX26F70Y5 and awarded on July 15, 2026, is a simplified acquisition executed under FAR 52.213-1 (Fast Pay), indicating a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) selection with no formal evaluation factors beyond price and compliance. Delivery is scheduled for July 22, 2026, with FOB destination terms, meaning the government assumes transportation risk and responsibility upon receipt at Bluffdale, Utah. The batteries must be shipped via traceable means, excluding parcel post, and each package must be marked with the base contract number SPE7M1-17-D-0001, the delivery order number SPE7LX26F70Y5, and a Department of Defense Transportation Control Number W90M8A61960002. Acceptance occurs at the destination, with inspection governed by contract specifications and DPAS priorities, though no specific MIL-STD or quality standards are cited. Payment will be processed by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, via electronic systems consistent with DLA’s standard practices. The contract includes no option quantities, modification volumes are tracked through amendments P00014, P00020, P00021, and P00032, and administrative oversight is handled by DLA Land and Maritime’s Strategic ACO Program Directorate, with Jeffrey Dixius as the contracting officer and Tiffany Lynn providing post-award support.
