BRACKET, MOUNTING

The contract solicitation SPE7LX-26-U-6643 is for the procurement of 508 mounting brackets, identified by NSN 5340-01-312-5368, under an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a maximum value ceiling of $350,000 and a guaranteed minimum quantity of 76 units. Performance is required within 189 days after award, with delivery terms set at FOB ORIGIN, meaning the contractor is responsible for placing the item at the origin point while the government arranges transport to the final destination. The product must comply with the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, which supersedes all other specifications, and packaging, marking, and palletization must adhere to MIL-STD-129, ASTM D3951, TQ IP025, and RP001, with all hazardous materials conforming to FED-STD-313 and 29 CFR 1910.1200 labeling standards. Ozone-depleting chemicals are strictly prohibited, and substitute chemicals require prior approval unless explicitly authorized by specifications. Cybersecurity requirements are central to this solicitation, mandating compliance with CMMC Level 2 certification or self-assessment and strict adherence to DFARS 252.204-7012 for safeguarding covered defense information, NIST SP 800-171 controls, and timely reporting of cyber incidents. Offerors must represent their small business status, including any joint venture affiliations, and maintain active UEI and CAGE codes within SAM. Proposal submissions must be sent electronically to the designated DLA address by May 13, 2026, with invoicing exclusively through WAWF. The evaluation process emphasizes technical acceptability and cybersecurity readiness over price alone, with non-compliance rendering offerors ineligible. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, and all deliverables require full traceability, proper labeling, and alignment with DLA packaging and identification standards.
