BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center Inc. (CAGE 4U407), a small women-owned business, for the supply of 661 nonrechargeable batteries (NSN 6135013336101) at a total price of $19,823.39, with an award date of July 16, 2026, and a required delivery date of July 20, 2026. The order is processed under simplified acquisition procedures with Fast Pay provisions per FAR 52.213-1 and is rated under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS), prioritizing timely fulfillment. Performance occurs FOB origin at the contractor’s facility in Connellsville, Pennsylvania, with title and risk of loss transferring to the government upon shipment; the government assumes responsibility for freight and conducts final inspection and acceptance at the destination. Invoicing must be submitted electronically via WAWF in accordance with DFARS 252.232-7003, and payment will be processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service under payment office code SL4701. Packaging and marking must conform to the requirements of the underlying contract SPE7M1-17-D-0001 and its modifications, including application of Barcoded Shipping Marking (BSM) and a Tracking Control Number (TCN: W90LM161970026), while parcel post is strictly prohibited and shipments must transit via the fastest traceable means. The contractor’s representation as a Women-Owned Small Business triggers compliance with FAR Part 19.5, and no alternate contract clauses or special requirements beyond Fast Pay and DPAS are explicitly documented, though referenced standards such as MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-2073 may apply indirectly through incorporated contract schedules. The acquisition reflects a low-value, non-complex procurement under an IDIQ vehicle, with no options, extensions, or technical evaluation factors specified, consistent with a Low Price Technically Acceptable approach.
