BLOCK, RETARD

The contract award SPE4AX26F286Z, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract vehicle SPE4AX26DP002, is a delivery order awarded to DERCO AEROSPACE, INC. (CAGE 8X044) for the supply of one unit of a BLOCK, RETARD (NSN 6610005113321) at a unit price of $1.00, resulting in a total contract value of $13.00. The award date is July 16, 2026, with delivery scheduled for May 12, 2027, to the DLA Distribution Depot Hill at Hill AFB, Utah, under FOB Origin terms. The contract is structured as a fixed-price delivery order under a broader C-130 Aircraft Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) program, with performance governed by referenced appendices including the Performance Work Statement, Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan, Incentive Plan, and Contract Data Requirements List. Packaging, marking, and preservation must comply with MIL-STD-129, ASTM D3951, and DLA’s Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, with palletization conforming to RP001. Inspection and acceptance occur at origin by the Government, with quality standards mandating zero non-conformances per MIL-STD-105/ASQ Z1.4 for critical attributes. The contract includes an extensive set of appendices defining technical, logistical, and compliance requirements, though no specific clause text from FAR Section I or special requirements from Section H are provided in the available content. Payment is processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using payment code S14701, with the contracting officer being Bobby Hornsby and administrative contact Andrew Davitt. While the total contract vehicle value is stated as approximately $50.99 million, this contract represents a single-line-item order. Offeror representations regarding small business status, socioeconomic certifications, or CMMC Level 2 and JCP compliance are not affirmatively confirmed in the documentation, nor are weights, evaluation factors, or the basis of award explicitly stated—though the negligible value suggests a Low Price Technically Acceptable approach. All data delivery and compliance obligations are tied to the overarching C-130 AC PBL framework.
