BATTERY, NONRECHARGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm-fixed-price delivery order, SPE7LX26F71H6, to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, a small women-owned business with CAGE code 4U407, for the procurement of one package of a non-rechargeable battery (NSN 6135009857845, Part Number 15A) at a total contract price of $7.14. The order, issued under the base contract SPE7M117D0001 and modified multiple times, was awarded on July 16, 2026, with delivery scheduled for July 23, 2026. Performance is FOB origin, meaning title and risk transfer to the government at the contractor’s location in Greenville, North Carolina, while the delivery destination is specified as two distinct addresses: one in Busan, South Korea, and another as APO AP 96213-2166. Payment is governed by DFARS 252.232-7003, with electronic invoicing required via Wide Area Workflow and Fast Pay applicable. The contract is rated under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (15 CFR 700), imposing priority performance obligations. All packages must be clearly marked with BSM identification, ship-to code, manufacturer’s CAGE code, part number, and payment code SL4701, though detailed packaging, preservation, or MIL-STD specifications are not provided. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination point by government representatives, and the contractor is not involved in the inspection process. The award reflects a small business set-aside with no options, and the contract value is fixed and non-negotiable. Administrative and payment contacts are designated under DLA Land and Maritime, with invoice submissions and contracting oversight managed by identified personnel. The contractor’s small and women-owned business status triggers relevant compliance and reporting obligations through the System for Award Management, and the procurement is executed under standard commercial item acquisition procedures with no technical or special requirements beyond supply delivery and marking.
