BOOT, DUST AND MOISTURE SEAL

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm-fixed-price contract with delivery orders to WECKWORTH MANUFACTURING, INC, CAGE 9J595, for the manufacture and delivery of the DUST AND MOISTURE SEAL BOOT (NSN 5340-00-055-2914) with a total potential value of $6,342,368.25, inclusive of a three-year base period and two optional one-year extensions. The contract, issued under solicitation SPE7LX-26-R-X019 and awarded on July 21, 2026, is structured as a performance-based agreement with deliveries beginning 140 days after receipt of each order, at a rate of 350 units every 30 days, with minimum and maximum order quantities of 100 and 2,500 units respectively. Unit pricing is fixed at $503.01 for Base Year I, escalating annually by 4% to $523.14 in Base Year II, $544.06 in Option Year I, and $565.83 in Option Year II, with the government retaining discretion to exercise the options. The contract requires full compliance with MIL-STD-2073-IE for packaging and marking, as detailed in Enclosure #1, and mandates electronic invoicing and receiving reports via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF). FOB ORIGIN terms apply, with acceptance occurring at the destination, and the contractor must prioritize and comply with all Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) rated orders, giving precedence to DX and DZ ratings over DO and unrated orders in accordance with 15 CFR 700. The contract administrator, Carla Madureira Emeterio of DLA Land and Maritime’s Strategic ACO Program Directorate, oversees performance and contract administration, with payment processed through the designated remit-to address in Columbus, Ohio. The performance location is the contractor’s facility in Haysville, Kansas, and production must adhere to NSN-specific technical requirements without deviation. Although no specific evaluation weights or adjectival ratings were documented, the procurement followed a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach, emphasizing compliance with all specifications as a pass/fail threshold rather than trade-offs. Contractual clauses include DFARS 252.222-7006
