BATTERY, STORAGE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a three-year indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract to EnerSys Energy Products Inc. under contract number SPE7LX24D5012 for the procurement of military-grade storage batteries, with a maximum potential value of $1,708,977.31 and a minimum funding commitment of $4,328.43. The contract includes four Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for two battery types identified by NSN 6140-01-417-3244 and NSN 6140-01-600-5837, each with tiered quantity ranges and corresponding unit prices that vary by year, reflecting escalating cost adjustments over the contract period. Surge capacity is provided through CLINs 0003 and 0004, which specify fixed quantities for emergency demand. Deliveries are governed by FOB Destination terms, requiring the contractor to assume all transportation costs, with inspection locations varying by CLIN—origin inspection for surge items produced at the UK facility (CAGE U6335) and destination inspection for standard deliveries to U.S. military receiving points. Performance timelines range from 30 to 110 days after order receipt, with specific delivery schedules tied to each CLIN. Compliance with packaging, marking, and preservation standards is mandatory and governed exclusively by Attachment #1, “PID Packaging Marking,” which incorporates expected military standards such as MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-2073-1 despite no explicit citation. The contractor must also submit and adhere to an Individual Subcontracting Plan and eCAP to demonstrate industrial capacity and small business participation, with the offeror certified as a Women-Owned Small Business under NAICS code 335910. All invoicing must follow DFARS 252.232-7003, with payments processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio. Contract administration is overseen by the DLA Land and Maritime office, with DCMA Europe designated as the cognizant inspection authority and Justin Houston serving as the local administrator. Final acceptance rests with the U.S. government, subject to verification against contract specifications, SDS compliance, and adherence to all labeling and barcoding requirements detailed in the attachments. No options or extensions are provided, and the contract operates as a fixed-term base agreement with no subsequent renewal provisions.
