CONTRACTOR FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract SPE4A524P8714 was awarded to KESSLER THERMOMETER CORP with CAGE code 3Q8A5 on July 14, 2026, by the Defense Logistics Agency under the Department of Defense, with the procurement office located in Richmond, Virginia. The contract involves two line items: a Contractor First Article Test and a GAGE, COMPOUND PRESS identified by NSN 6685-01-131-8107. Although the original CLIN 0001 had a unit price of $250.00 for 34 units, totaling $8,500, this line item was fully cancelled under a unilateral modification issued pursuant to FAR 43.203(b) and FAR 13.004(c), resulting in a current contract value of $0.00 with no financial obligation to the government. The contractor is located in West Babylon, New York, and the contract is administered by DCMA Northeast at Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts. No explicit delivery schedule, period of performance start or end dates, or FOB terms are defined in the available documentation. Packaging, marking, and preservation requirements are referenced as being detailed on a Continuation Sheet not provided, though labeling is required to include the NSN, CAGE code, CLIN, and BX code 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189 (0001) to ensure traceability. Inspection and acceptance are the responsibility of the Government, with performance potentially occurring at the Government’s location. The NAICS code 334513 applies to instrument manufacturing but no socioeconomic or size status certifications from the contractor are included. The contracting officer is Joe Williams, with Maureen Popdan from DLA Aviation serving as the initiating point of contact. No formal Statement of Work, inspection standards, or referenced military standards like MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-2073 are present, and no invoicing method, payment office details, or accounting appropriation codes are specified, as these are noted to be on an unavailable Continuation Sheet. The contract type is not explicitly stated, but the nature of the deliverables and the use of a first article test suggest a firm-fixed-price arrangement under simplified acquisition procedures.
