BATTERY, NONRECHARGEABLE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M117D0001 to EASTERN CAROLINA VOCATIONAL CENTER INC, identified by CAGE code 4U407, for the supply of a single line item: NONRECHARGEABLE BATTERY (NSN 6135008264798) at a total contract value of $53.80. The award was issued on July 31, 2026, and delivery is required by August 7, 2026, to Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA. The contract was executed under simplified acquisition procedures utilizing FAR 52.213-1, Fast Pay, indicating an expedited payment process and administrative processing typical of low-value procurements. The awardee is certified as a Small Disadvantaged Women-Owned Business, triggering compliance obligations under FAR Part 19 and related socioeconomic programs, and the order is linked to prior contract modifications including SPE7M117D0001P00014, which contain updated packaging and delivery data. All delivery and marking requirements specify inclusion of the manufacturer’s CAGE code, part number, transaction control number, and government use codes such as DIC A0A, DIST V, and ADV FC: Z9, though no formal military packaging standards like MIL-STD-129 are explicitly cited. Shipping must be conducted by the fastest traceable means, excluding parcel post, and the place of performance aligns directly with the delivery destination. Payment is to be processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using the provided accounting codes BX: 97X4930 and SCBX: 0012620533189. While the contract references general compliance with DPAS (15 CFR 700) and the terms of the underlying basic agreement, no formal inspection criteria, quality standards, contract administration representatives, or special requirements beyond standard federal supply protocols are identified, suggesting a routine, low-risk acquisition managed primarily through electronic data interchange and existing supply chain channels.
