COMMERCIAL LAB TESTING - JET A

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a fixed-price delivery order to Intertek USA Inc. under contract SPE60322FA3C3 for commercial laboratory testing of Jet A fuel, with a final obligated value of $4,422.00. The award, issued on July 16, 2026, represents the administrative closure of a previously issued task order under SPE60322D5000, which had been initially valued at $20,899.04 before being reduced to its current amount through contract modification P00001. The work is governed by FAR 52.243-1, Changes—Fixed Price with Alternate I, indicating a firm fixed-price structure with provisions for unilateral governmental adjustments. The contract references NSN H191V20000314 for the service and is associated with appropriation account 97X4930 5CFX 2034613 001 2512 S33189. Performance is expected at Intertek’s facility in Arlington Heights, Illinois, though no explicit delivery, inspection, or place-of-performance details are documented. The contracting officer is Carlos Vidro-Martinez, with administrative oversight provided by Karen Tom of DLA Energy, Bulk Petroleum Services, based in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. No packaging, marking, inspection criteria, or technical standards such as ASTM or MIL-SPEC are cited in the available documentation, suggesting reliance on industry norms for aviation fuel testing. The contract contains no options, socioeconomic certifications, security requirements, or key personnel designations, and no evaluation factors or source selection rationale are evident, consistent with a low-value commercial services transaction likely awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis. Final payment is processed through the DLA Energy office, though the invoicing method remains unspecified, and all administrative documentation centers around the SF-30 modification and financial closeout.
