The specific delivery order is valued at 399.00 dollars for two units, with a required delivery date of October 27, 2026. The contract mandates strict adherence to military standards, including MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging, MIL-STD-129 for shipment marking, and MIL-STD-130N for item identification.

The items have a specified shelf life of 12 months and require 2D bar-coding for traceability. Administrative requirements include electronic invoicing and receiving reports via the Wide Area Workflow system. Inspection and acceptance are conducted by the government at the destination, with quality assurance governed by MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331, requiring zero non-conformances in sample lots.
