BUSHING, NONMETALLIC

The contract is for the procurement of 325 nonmetallic bushings with NSN 5365-01-620-9298, to be delivered within 108 days after order placement to Hill AFB, Utah, under solicitation SPE4A7-26-Q-0972. The item must conform to drawing NR 81205 25-93938 Rev F and adhere strictly to military packaging and marking standards, including MIL-STD-2073-1E for preservation and packaging, and MIL-STD-129 for labeling and barcoding. Packaging must follow RP001 DLA requirements, with no preservation or wrapping materials applied, and test samples must be clearly marked as “Product Verification Test Samples — Do Not Post to Stock.” The bushings must be new, unused, and free from defects or deterioration, with final inspection and acceptance occurring at the destination. Technical data associated with this item is subject to export controls under ITAR or EAR, restricting disclosure to foreign persons regardless of location and requiring compliance with DFARS 252.225-7048. Only contractors with approved US/Canada Joint Certification Program status, completed DLA export control training, and authorization from the DLA controlling authority may access the data. The contractor must maintain CMMC Level 3 compliance for handling Controlled Unclassified Information, submit current CMMC status via the Supplier Performance Risk System, and flow down CMMC requirements to subcontractors handling such information, excluding COTS items. The solicitation is not a small business set-aside, but offerors must provide Valid UEI and CAGE codes, and disclosures regarding covered defense telecommunications equipment and services are required if applicable. Payment will be processed via WAWF using the DD Form 250 or equivalent shipping documentation. Past performance, including SPRS assessments, historical delivery compliance, and quality records, will be weighted as significantly more important than cost, though both are critical in a best-value trade-off award determination. The contract includes numerous FAR and DFARS clauses related to whistleblower protections, labor standards, cybersecurity, prompt payment, anti-trafficking, and information safeguarding, with flow-down obligations to subcontractors where applicable.
