Performance is governed by FOB origin terms at Sikorsky’s facility in Stratford, Connecticut, where inspection and acceptance will occur, with transportation costs reimbursable by the government to the final destination at the DLA Distribution facility in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. The contract enforces strict compliance with military standards including MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging, MIL-STD-129 for marking and barcoding, and DLA-specific requirements such as RP001 for packaging and RQ011 for the removal of government identifiers from non-accepted items.

The awardee is certified as a small, small disadvantaged, and women-owned business, triggering socioeconomic reporting obligations under FAR Part 19. The contract has a zero percent quantity variance allowance, reflecting a lowest price technically acceptable procurement approach, with all technical and quality requirements incorporated by reference from the DLA Master List. Payment is processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using the government’s federal payment system, with contract administration handled by Latrocia Hunter as the Contracting/Ordering Officer and Debbie Lambeth as Contract Administrator. No formal FAR clauses or DFARS provisions are included, as the order relies entirely on DLA procedural directives and standards.
