BATTERY, NONRECHARGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, CAGE 4U407, for five non-rechargeable batteries with NSN 6135009857845 at a total price of $35.70. The award was issued on July 21, 2026, with delivery scheduled for July 24, 2026, under FOB origin terms, meaning the contractor's responsibility ends upon loading at its location in Greenville, North Carolina, and the government assumes liability and cost from that point forward. The final delivery destination is San Antonio, Texas, with inspection and acceptance occurring at the point of delivery. The contract leverages Fast Pay procedures under FAR 52.213-1, enabling payment within 15 days of invoice submission, which must be submitted electronically per DFARS 252.232-7003 through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service using payment code SL4701. The order is designated as a DPAS-rated priority under 15 CFR 700, requiring expedited fulfillment and compliance with defense priorities regulations. Packaging requirements mandate traceable shipping methods, prohibition of parcel post, and marking of all shipments with BSM identification and reference to contract Blocks 1 and 2. The awardee is certified as a small business with socioeconomic designations as both a Women-Owned Small Business and a Small Disadvantaged Business. There is no flexibility in quantity, with a fixed order of five units and zero variance allowed. No technical standards, MIL-STDs, or detailed packaging specifications are explicitly stated beyond traceability and marking, and no COR or COTR is assigned. Contract administration is handled by Jeffrey Dixius of DLA Land and Maritime, with post-award support provided by Tiffany Lynn. The contract is a stand-alone delivery order under a larger IDIQ vehicle, with several modifications referenced but no additional clauses or special requirements beyond those already enumerated.
