The contract award SPE60323FA3K1, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the parent delivery order SPE60322D5000, is a commercial item acquisition under FAR Part 12 awarding Intertek USA Inc. (CAGE 1SG15) a total value of $300.00 for laboratory testing services related to F76, JPTS, JET A, and JP5 fuel types. The contract has a base period from December 15, 2021, through December 14, 2023, with an option period extending through December 14, 2025, potentially increasing the total estimated value to $9.7 million, though the current modified award reflects only a minimal financial adjustment. The work is performed under a statement of work referenced from October 27, 2021, with performance obligations tied to CLINs previously scheduled for significant quantities but now reduced or zeroed out, indicating a managed closeout of prior commitments. Delivery is FOB destination, with locations specified in the schedule, and acceptance is finalized through the Wide Area WorkFlow system, requiring electronic submission and government confirmation via authorized representatives. The contractor, certified as a Women-Owned Small Business under NAICS 541380, is bound by standard FAR clauses including restrictions on contingent fees, anti-kickback provisions, subcontractor sales limitations, and changes under fixed-price terms, along with DFARS cybersecurity requirements for safeguarding covered defense information. Payment is mandated through WAWF, remitted to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, with no alternative invoicing methods permitted. Attachment-based requirements include wage determinations, a subcontracting plan, a signed SF-30 modification, and a price sheet in both PDF and Excel formats, while no explicit MIL-STD packaging or marking standards are specified, relying instead on administrative tracking fields such as ship number and delivery location. The contract includes no key personnel mandates, security clearance requirements, or tailored organizational conflict of interest provisions, focusing instead on commercial service delivery, compliance with certification status, and adherence to cybersecurity and payment protocols.
