CONTRACTOR FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract awarded to Military Supply Company LLC under solicitation SPE7L125P7885, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency through its Land and Maritime division, encompasses a total value of $129,918.21 with an award date of July 15, 2026. The scope of work centers on a Contractor First Article Test for two distinct National Stock Numbers: 0001S00000053 and 5340015241804, with the latter appearing twice under different purchase requisition numbers, indicating separate deliveries or testing events for the Resilient Mount, UTI. The contract was processed under simplified acquisition procedures per FAR 13.302(a) and 12.303(a), suggesting a streamlined procurement without formal competitive bidding documentation. The award was made unilaterally, and while the total price is specified, line-item quantities, unit prices, and delivery schedules are not detailed in the available records, with all pricing and quantity data left unpopulated. The contractor’s place of performance is listed as Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, but no explicit delivery locations or FOB terms are defined. The contract incorporates FAR 52.222-90, addressing DEI discrimination by federal contractors, effective under Deviation 2026-00040 Revision 1, which imposes compliance and reporting obligations beyond standard labor requirements. No other specialized clauses regarding security, OCI, or key personnel are referenced. Although the DLA Land and Maritime office in Columbus, Ohio, serves as the contracting office and DCMA Mid-Atlantic acts as the administrative administering office, no Contracting Officer’s Representative is named, and inspection and acceptance procedures are not specified despite the involvement of first article testing. Standard military packaging, preservation, and marking practices under MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-130 are implied through use of NSNs and CAGE codes but not codified in the document. Invoicing methods, payment details, and accounting data such as TAS or AAC lines are omitted, and no representations regarding socioeconomic status or size certification are provided beyond the contractor’s CAGE code 8DDT3 and Unique Entity Identifier, which is not explicitly listed. The contract administration relies on electronic systems like DIBBS for communications and post-award reporting, while the absence of the referenced Continuation Sheet limits full visibility into technical requirements and test
