BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center Inc. (CAGE 4U407), a small business, for the purchase of two nonrechargeable batteries (NSN 6135009857846) at a total value of $17.74. The order was issued on July 21, 2026, with delivery scheduled for July 24, 2026, under FOB ORIGIN terms, meaning title and risk of loss transfer to the government upon shipment from the awardee’s location in Greenville, North Carolina, to the delivery point at W81PF8, Morrisville, North Carolina. Payment is processed under the Fast Pay provision per FAR 52.213-1 and requires electronic submission via WAWF in accordance with DFARS 252.232-7003, with invoices remitted to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service under payment code SL4701. The order is designated as a rated priority under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS), mandating accelerated production and delivery compliance. All packages must be clearly marked with the NSN, CAGE code 4U407, government payment code, tracking number W81PF862020006, MARKFOR delivery code W81PF8, and RDD code 555 to ensure traceability within the DoD logistics system, with barcoding implied through standard DoD supply chain practices. While packaging and preservation specifications are not detailed, compliance with MIL-STD-129 for marking and MIL-STD-2073 for packaging is strongly implied. The contracting officer is Jeffrey Dixius, with administrative support handled by Tiffany Lynn, though no COR or COTR is named. The award stems from an indefinite-delivery vehicle, though the underlying contract type is not explicitly classified. No additional clauses beyond Fast Pay and DPAS are formally cited, and no evaluation factors or source selection criteria are documented in the available materials, indicating this was a simplified acquisition under commercial item procedures. The single line item carries no option quantities, and no other CLINs or modifications contribute to the contract’s value.
