The award was issued on July 14, 2026, with delivery required by July 17, 2026, under FOB origin terms, meaning title and risk of loss transfer to the government upon shipment from the contractor’s facility in Greenville, North Carolina, with the government responsible for all freight costs. The destination for delivery is the U.S. military installation in Stillwater, Oklahoma. This transaction is processed as a simplified acquisition under FAR 52.213-1 (Fast Pay Net 15), with electronic invoicing mandated through DFARS 252.232-7003 and payment managed via the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using payment code SL4701. The contractor is certified as a Small Disadvantaged Business and a Women-Owned Small Business, triggering compliance obligations under FAR Part 19 and DFARS socioeconomic reporting requirements. The order is designated a rated priority under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) per 15 CFR 700, requiring priority handling in production and delivery. Packaging and marking must align with referenced modifications P00014, P00020, P00021, and P00032, with all items labeled with the Transportation Control Number W58DTW61950017 and shipped by the fastest traceable method, excluding parcel post. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, with no detailed technical specifications or MIL-STD standards cited beyond contractual conformance. The acquisition is structured as a firm-fixed-price delivery order with no options or contingencies, reflecting a low-dollar, low-risk procurement processed without formal evaluation factors, consistent with a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach. Administrative oversight is managed by DLA Land and Maritime’s Strategic ACO Program Directorate, with Tiffany Lynn as the designated point of contact for post-award matters.
