The award was finalized on July 13, 2026, with an effective modification date of February 24, 2026, and was executed under FAR Part 13 simplified acquisition procedures, using a unilateral modification authority. The contractor is located in Carlsbad, California, while administrative and payment functions are handled by DLA Land and Maritime, Maritime Supply Chain, based in Columbus, Ohio. No detailed quantities, delivery schedules, or FOB terms are specified in the documentation, and the place of performance is not explicitly defined. Payment and invoicing details are not fully outlined, though invoices are likely processed through DLA’s standard systems. The contract includes only one clause: FAR 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, with a deviation and revision effective April 2026, making it a unique contractual requirement. No other clauses, attachments, or special requirements such as security clearances, key personnel, or contract options are identified. Technical specifications, quality standards, inspection criteria, or packaging and marking requirements are absent from the documentation, with no reference to MIL-STD-129, MIL-STD-2073, or MIL-STD-130. The Government retains responsibility for inspection and acceptance, though no location or criteria are specified. The contractor’s size status and socioeconomic certifications are not disclosed, and no Unique Entity ID is provided, though the CAGE code is confirmed. There are no contracting officer’s representatives listed, and the sole point of contact is the contracting officer, Michael Finken. While the total price is stated, the unit price, quantity, and cost breakdowns are not available, and no evaluation factors or basis of award methodology are documented, leaving the selection rationale unclear beyond the award being a simplified acquisition.
