LAMP, INCANDESCENT

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Boeing Distribution Services, Inc. a fixed-price contract for the delivery of 1,000 incandescent lamps with NSN 6240014155581 under solicitation SPE4A6-26-Q-0786, with an award date of July 30, 2026, and a total contract value of $75,000.00. The contract includes a required first article test for quality validation and mandates strict adherence to military packaging and marking standards including MIL-STD-2073-1E for preservation and MIL-STD-129 for exterior container labeling, which requires 2D Data Matrix barcodes, NSN, contract number, and full traceability information. Deliveries must be made within 60 days after delivery order issuance to Industries of the Blind Inc in Greensboro, NC, with FOB origin terms applying, transferring title and risk upon shipment. The contract is rated under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS), requiring prioritized production, and includes supply assurance requirements to support multisourcing and prevent single-point supply chain vulnerabilities. The contractor must comply with numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses covering ethical conduct, labor protections, trafficking prevention, paid sick leave, and payment procedures, including electronic funds transfer through SAM.gov and mandatory use of Wide Area WorkFlow for all invoicing and receiving reports. Quality assurance is governed by ISO 9001:2015, with first article testing required and inspection and acceptance occurring at the origin and delivery point, with the contractor bearing all costs for retesting and nonconformities. Hazard communication compliance under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 and submission of Material Safety Data Sheets prior to award are mandatory, as is adherence to NIST SP 800-171 for safeguarding controlled unclassified information. The award decision was based on a trade-off analysis prioritizing past performance, particularly supplier performance risk system assessments and delivery history, significantly over cost. The contractor must maintain its Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code in SAM.gov, disclose upstream producers for covered telecommunications equipment, and flow down all applicable requirements to subcontractors, including those for cybersecurity, quality, and hazardous materials. Noncompliance with packaging, marking, documentation, or delivery requirements may result in rejection, and all contract modifications are subject to pricing rules and changes clauses under FAR and DFARS.
