BATTERY, NONRECHARGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm fixed-price delivery order, SPE7LX26F70Y1, to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, a small woman-owned business with CAGE code 4U407, for a single unit of a non-rechargeable battery identified by NSN 6135008357210 at a total contract value of $11.93. The order was issued under the base contract SPE7M117D0001 and is classified as a rated priority under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS), requiring strict adherence to production and delivery timelines. Delivery is scheduled for July 20, 2026, with FOB origin terms placing responsibility for freight and risk of loss on the government from the contractor’s location in Greenville, North Carolina, to the specified destination in San Antonio, Texas. Payment will be processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service under Code SL4701 using fast pay procedures per FAR 52.213-1, with invoicing governed by DFARS 252.232-7003. The item must be shipped via the fastest traceable means—parcel post is prohibited—and properly marked with the manufacturer’s CAGE code and part number. Government acceptance occurs at the delivery point and is contingent upon compliance with contract specifications, including the exact NSN and associated technical requirements, though no detailed inspection or qualification criteria are provided. The contractor’s socio-economic status as a women-owned small business and economically disadvantaged women-owned small business is formally recognized, triggering compliance obligations under SBA regulations and annual SAM updates. No other clauses, attachments, or special requirements for packaging, preservation, barcoding, or technical specifications beyond basic marking and shipping instructions are included; the contract is structured as a streamlined, low-value procurement under simplified acquisition procedures with no option quantities, extensions, or modifications beyond administrative adjustments to the base contract.
