BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a single-line-item delivery order SPE7LX26F68E2 to Eastern Carolina Vocational Center (CAGE 4U407), a Small Disadvantaged Business and Women-Owned Small Business, for five non-rechargeable batteries (NSN 6135012108715) at a total contract price of $3.30, with a unit price of $0.66 per item. The order was issued under the basic contract SPE7M117D0001 and was awarded on July 13, 2026, under a Low Price Technically Acceptable evaluation approach, typical for minimal-value acquisitions. Delivery is required by July 20, 2026, to the U.S. Naval Air Facility Atsugi in Japan, with FOB Origin terms placing transportation responsibility and risk on the government once the item leaves the contractor’s premises. Inspection and acceptance are to be performed by the government at the destination, ensuring conformity to the contract and applicable DoD standards, though no detailed technical specifications or quality metrics are provided in the documentation. Payment is processed via Fast Pay under FAR 52.213-1, with invoicing handled electronically through WAWF, and funds are drawn from the DoD appropriation code BX: 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189. Packaging and marking requirements mandate inclusion of the base contract number and delivery order number on all shipping documentation, but specific packaging, preservation, or barcoding standards are not detailed, likely governed by referenced contract modifications. The contract includes affirmative certifications for small business, SDB, and WOSB status, triggering corresponding reporting obligations under FAR 19.7, 19.14, and 19.15, and the order is designated as a DPAS-rated priority under 15 CFR 700. Contract administration is managed by Jeffrey Dixius as the contracting officer and Tiffany Lynn as the post-award point of contact, though no designated COR or COTR is named, reflecting the simplicity and administrative nature of this transaction.
