CONTRACTOR FIRST ARTICLE TEST

A&M AEROSTRUCTURES, INC. was awarded Contract SPE7L725P1101 by the Defense Logistics Agency under the NAICS code 334512 for the delivery of 60 units of a Gear, Block Assembly (NSN 3020-01-044-4562) and one Contractor First Article Test (NSN 0001-S00000053), with an original total contract value of $185,000. The contract was structured as a Firm-Fixed-Price arrangement, with delivery dates specified for each line item—February 15, 2026, for the first article test and August 14, 2026, for the gear assemblies. Performance was expected to occur at the contractor’s facility in Jacksonville, Florida, with administration handled by DCMA SOUTHEAST and oversight by Contracting Officer Jessica Ramsey of DLA Land and Maritime. Payment processing was to be managed through DLA’s designated office in Columbus, Ohio, though the specific invoicing system was not identified. The contract included FAR 52.249-8, Termination for Default, which was subsequently invoked on July 15, 2026, resulting in the termination of both line items and the reduction of the contract value to zero. No packaging, marking, or inspection standards were explicitly detailed, though the requirement for a first article test implied adherence to standard government acceptance protocols. The contractor’s CAGE code is 9D1B0, but no socioeconomic certifications, size status representations, or additional special requirements such as security clearances or OCI provisions were documented. The solicitation was issued on January 17, 2025, and awarded on July 15, 2026, with no publicly available data on evaluation factors, source selection methodology, or formal attachments. Accounting codes referenced on the continuation sheet suggest budgetary funding lines, though their precise classification as AAC, TAS, or ACRN was not clarified.
