BEARING, PLAIN, SELF-ALIGNING

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Contract SPE4A626P9110 to NEW HAMPSHIRE BALL BEARINGS INC, with a total value of $1,655,537.66, for the procurement of a plain self-aligning bearing identified by NSN 3120012068699. The award was issued on July 17, 2026, under a modification to an existing contract, and the contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price arrangement, though the type is not explicitly stated. The work is governed by FAR 52.222-90, implemented through DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040 and aligned with OMB Memorandum M-25-26, which prohibits contractors from engaging in or promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs that involve race- or sex-based discrimination. The contractor is required to flow down these provisions to all subcontractors, report any known subcontractor violations, and provide full access to records upon request. The award does not specify delivery quantities, unit pricing, period of performance, FOB terms, or exact place of delivery, though the contractor’s location in Laconia, NH, and the administering office in Northeastern U.S. suggest potential inspection or acceptance points there. The contract references no technical specifications, MIL-STDs for packaging or marking, preservation methods, or inspection criteria beyond regulatory compliance, and no detailed evaluation factors or basis of award are documented, though the low price and single-item nature suggest a lowest price technically acceptable approach. Payment is handled by DLA Aviation’s ASC Commodities Division in Richmond, VA, with Dean Allen serving as Contracting Officer, though no COR or COTR are identified. The contractor’s CAGE code is 15860, and while the NAICS code is listed as 332991, no socioeconomic status or size certification is provided. Invoicing methods, accounting codes, and electronic submission portals are not specified, and no attachments or additional documentation are referenced in the contract file.
