(CAGE 0FGN2) a firm-fixed-price indefinite-delivery contract under SPE7L425D5002 for the procurement of non-spillable batteries with NSN 6140013896178. The contract has a maximum value of $250,000 and includes tiered pricing based on order volume across a base period and two options, with unit prices decreasing incrementally as quantities increase. Each delivery order must be fulfilled within 220 days of issuance, and performance is confined to the contractor’s facility in Chesapeake, Virginia, where packaging, manufacturing, and preparation occur. Delivery is FOB Origin, meaning the Government assumes all transportation costs and risk of loss once the product leaves the contractor’s facility. The contract includes mandatory compliance with MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging, MIL-STD-129R for shipment marking, and MIL-STD-130N for permanent Unique Item Identification (UID) marking using Data Matrix codes. Hazardous material labeling must follow 29 CFR 1910.1200, with clear “NON-SPILLABLE” identification and adherence to ADR/RID, IMDG, and IATA-DGR transport regulations; mercury-containing items require second containment under NAVSEA 5100-003D. The contractor must submit Material Safety Data Sheets and Hazard Warning Labels pre-delivery and ensure zero non-conformances during origin inspection per MIL-STD-1916 sampling standards. The contract incorporates multiple FAR and DFARS clauses governing cybersecurity (including 252.204-7012 with Deviation 2024-00013), whistleblower rights, commercial item maintenance, child labor prohibitions, equal opportunity, trafficking in persons, and subcontractor debarment restrictions. Small business representation is governed by FAR 52.219-28 Alternate I, requiring the contractor to affirm size and socioeconomic status in table format. Invoice submissions are mandatory via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), using either an Invoice and Receiving Report or Cost Voucher depending on delivery type. Contract administration is managed by Patrick Sikorski with the Defense Logistics Agency, and no Contracting Officer’s Representative is listed. The contract remains active for three years from award, with delivery orders receivable until then
