The contract is administered by the DLA Aviation, ASC Commodities Division, with Carl Allen serving as the Contracting Officer and Dean Allen as the Contracting Officer 16A. Payment is managed through the office located in Richmond, Virginia, though specific remittance details, invoicing methods, or accounting codes such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN are not provided in the documentation. The contract does not include explicit delivery schedules, FOB terms, packaging or marking requirements, or technical specifications beyond the NSN, and no evaluation factors or award rationale are disclosed, indicating this was a non-competitive or administratively processed award. The only substantive contractual clause incorporated is FAR 52.222-90 addressing DEI discrimination, which imposes strict prohibitions against certain diversity, equity, and inclusion training practices and requires the contractor to flow the clause down to all U.S.-based subcontractors, report violations, and comply with audit requests. Noncompliance may result in termination, suspension, or debarment, with violations deemed material to payment obligations under federal law. The contractor is identified by CAGE code 04836, but no socioeconomic status, size certification, or Unique Entity Identifier is stated. No attachments, inspection criteria, or quality standards are explicitly detailed in the available materials, and while the contract references general compliance with FAR and DFARS, no MIL-STDs or specific technical documentation are cited. The award is a straightforward delivery order without options, extensions, or multi-period pricing.
