BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M1-17-D-0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center Inc, identified by CAGE code 4U407, for the procurement of one nonrechargeable battery (NSN 6135009857846) at a fixed unit price of $8.87, resulting in a total contract value of $8.87. The order was issued on July 15, 2026, with delivery required by July 22, 2026, under FOB origin terms, meaning the U.S. Government assumes transportation costs and risk upon shipment from the awardee’s facility in Greenville, North Carolina. The delivery destination is the USNS MERCY (T-AH 19), a U.S. Navy hospital ship, with shipments must be sent via traceable methods only—parcel post is prohibited—and all packages must be clearly labeled with required identifying data including the NSN, contractor and manufacturer CAGE codes, contract number, DIC A0A, DIST 9B, ADV 2D, and FC E5, aligning with standard DoD labeling protocols typically governed by MIL-STD-129. Packaging and preservation requirements are not explicitly detailed but are expected to comply with relevant military standards. Payment is processed electronically through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service using code SL4701, per DFARS 252.232-7003, with invoicing required through WAWF and no physical duplicate shipments permitted. The awardee is certified as a small business, triggering FAR 19.502-2 reporting requirements, and the order is classified as a DPAS-rated priority under 15 CFR 700. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination by government personnel, and no options, variance, or additional line items are included. The contract reflects a streamlined, low-value transaction administered through a master agreement, with no special clauses, security requirements, or unique performance conditions beyond standard logistics and compliance obligations. The contracting officer is Jeffrey Dixius, and post-award administrative support is handled by Tiffany Lynn.
