BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to EASTERN CAROLINA VOCATIONAL CENTER (CAGE 4U407), a small business, for the supply of nonrechargeable batteries with NSN 6135008264798. The total contract value is $16.14, with delivery of six packages due by July 21, 2026, under FOB origin terms and payment made by the government upon acceptance at the destination. The order is identified as a rated priority under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (15 CFR 700), requiring the contractor to comply with priority performance obligations and report any production or delivery delays. Invoicing must follow DFARS 252.232-7003, with payment processed electronically through the DLA payment office SL4701 using EDI, and the Fast Pay provision (FAR 52.213-1) enables payment within 15 days of invoice receipt without physical inspection if documentation is in order. All shipments must be traceable, marked with the Distribution Identifier Code A3A and tracking number W90XUR61950005, and delivered to W7AA SUSTAINMENT TRAINING CTR in Johnston, IA, despite the contractor’s location in Greenville, NC. The contractor’s small business status triggers reporting requirements to the Federal Procurement Data System and potential subcontracting plan obligations, though no additional socioeconomic certifications are indicated. Packaging and labeling requirements are explicitly defined but specific military standards like MIL-STD-129 are not cited. The award notice references multiple modifications to the base IDIQ contract and includes designated points of contact for contracting and postaward administration, but no formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or attachments were provided in the available documentation.
