The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under the IDIQ contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center (CAGE 4U407), a small business certified as both a Small Disadvantaged Business and a Women-Owned Small Business, for the procurement of 24 non-rechargeable batteries (NSN 6135015210378) at a total price of $719.76. The award was issued on July 16, 2026, with delivery required by July 23, 2026, under FOB origin terms, meaning title and risk transfer to the government upon shipment from the contractor’s facility in Greenville, North Carolina, to the destination at 150 Speedway Drive, Fountain Inn, South Carolina. The order is administered under the DLA Land and Maritime Strategic ACO Program Directorate, with payment processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using Fast Pay procedures per FAR 52.213-1, allowing streamlined payment upon receipt and acceptance of goods. Packaging and marking must include traceable shipping methods (parcel post prohibited), the Traceable Control Number W506EB61970001, the Required Delivery Date, and contract identification numbers from Blocks 1 and 2. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination by the government, with compliance based solely on adherence to contract specifications. No additional technical standards like MIL-STD are cited, and no COR or COTR is identified. The contract value is fixed with no option quantities, and socioeconomic certifications require ongoing compliance with SAM.gov registration and reporting obligations under FAR 19.1406 and FAR 19.15, although subcontracting plans are not mandatory due to the low dollar value.
