The contract awarded to CHASE SUPPLY, INC. (CAGE 1RZM1) under solicitation SPE7M4-25-T-291N and contract number SPE7M426P0442 is valued at $24,257.00 and was awarded on July 15, 2026, by the Defense Logistics Agency’s Land and Maritime Fluid Handling Division. The scope of work centers on the completion of a Contractor First Article Test for two specified items: a hose and air duct identified by NSN 4720013205572 and a component identified by NSN 0001S00000053, with performance likely tied to the contractor’s facility in Hampton, Virginia, and oversight managed by DCMA Southeast in Orlando and the contracting officer in Columbus, Ohio.
