CASE, PHOTOGRAPHIC EQUIPMENT

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Contract SPE8EN26D0001 to PELICAN PRODUCTS, INC. (CAGE 65442) for the provision of photographic equipment cases under a fixed-price, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) structure with a base period of one year and four one-year options, with a maximum potential value of $24,300,000. The contract includes multiple line items for various NSN-coded photographic cases, each with fixed unit prices ranging from $0.00 to $327.41, with extended prices set at $0.00 due to the IDIQ nature of the agreement, meaning obligations are triggered only upon issuance of individual delivery orders. Delivery is required within 30 days of order receipt, with FOB ORIGIN terms applying, and shipments must be made to government-determined destinations where inspection and acceptance will occur. Packaging and marking must strictly adhere to MIL-STD-129, including external labeling of “Product Verification Test Samples – Do Not Post to Stock,” along with the contract and lot/item numbers, and require inclusion of hard copies of the contract, material certifications, process operation sheets, and drawings inside each package. Electronic invoicing through Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) is mandatory, and the contractor must be registered in the system. The award is subject to a broad array of FAR and DFARS clauses covering procurement integrity, supply chain security, cybersecurity compliance including NIST SP 800-171 and cyber incident reporting, prohibitions on acquiring equipment from covered entities such as Kaspersky Lab and ByteDance, labor standards including minimum wage and paid sick leave mandates, small business subcontractor payment acceleration, and restrictions on contracting with state sponsors of terrorism. The contractor must also comply with export control requirements, sustainable purchasing guidelines, and the Defense Priority and Allocation Requirements. A vendor-signed attachment is required as part of contract execution, and all deliverables are subject to government inspection at destination under FAR 52.246-2 and 52.246-16. No specific evaluation factors or award basis are detailed, but the structure implies a price-based selection within a technically acceptable framework.
