CORD, FIBROUS

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE8EE26D0300 to EAST TEXAS LIGHTHOUSE FOR THE BLIND, with a CAGE code of 5U446, for the procurement of 2 units of CORD, FIBROUS (NSN 4020002460688) at a unit price of $87.38, totaling $174.76. The award was issued on July 20, 2026, with delivery required by July 22, 2026, under FOB DESTINATION terms, meaning the contractor assumes all transportation costs and risks until delivery. The place of performance is the awardee’s facility in Tyler, Texas, while the destination for delivery is unspecified beyond the general term “DESTINATION.” The contract qualifies as a small business set-aside, though no additional socioeconomic certifications are specified. Compliance with the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) and electronic invoicing via WAWF under DFARS 252.232-7003 is required. Packaging instructions mandate shipment by the fastest traceable means, excluding parcel post, with all packages marked using the traceability identifier W90KLY62010002. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination by a government representative, with no explicit quality standards outlined beyond conformity to contract terms. Payment is processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, with funding designated by budget index 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189. The contracting officer representative is Colleen Ippolli, and no formal COR or COTR is designated. No formal statement of work, evaluation factors, contract clauses, or attachments are detailed in the documentation, suggesting minimal administrative complexity typical of a small-value delivery order under an existing basic contract.
