CONTRACTOR FIRST ARTICLE TEST

A.G.H. Industries, LLC, with CAGE code 50888, has been awarded a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $193,655.40 under modification SPE7L326P2675, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency through solicitation SPE7L1-25-T-398Z. The contract requires the contractor to perform a Contractor First Article Test and supply a Differential Gear U identified by NSN 2520000459858, both critical to verifying compliance with technical and performance standards before full-scale production. The award was processed under simplified acquisition procedures per FAR 13.302(a), indicating a low-risk, non-complex requirement. The contract includes the unique clause FAR 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, effective under Deviation 2026-00040 Revision 1, which imposes specific compliance obligations regarding employment practices and prohibits discrimination based on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Packaging and labeling must adhere to DLA requirements, including the use of NSN 7540-01-152-8070, contractor CAGE code 50888, and contract number SPE7L326P2675, with Standard Form 30 (REV. 11/2016) used for all modifications and official correspondence, though detailed MIL-STD specifications for marking or barcoding are not explicitly stated. Payment and contract administration are handled by DLA Land and Maritime, Land Supply Chain, located in Columbus, Ohio, with Kelly Drees serving as the contracting officer and primary point of contact. Delivery and performance locations are not formally specified, though the contractor’s address in Euless, Texas, may imply performance at that site. The period of performance, delivery schedule, and FOB terms are not defined in the documentation, and no inspection location, acceptance criteria, or quality standards beyond regulatory compliance are provided. No contracting officer’s representative or technical representative is named, and while the contract references the possibility of attachments through a continuation sheet, their content is inaccessible. The award does not include options, socioeconomic certifications, or clause-specific compliance attestations beyond the DEI clause, and invoicing procedures are not detailed, though electronic systems like DIBBS are used for post-award communication.
