DESICCANT, ACTIVATED

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under basic contract SPE4AX-16-D-9008 to ASRC Federal Facilities Logistics, LLC (CAGE 79343), a small disadvantaged women-owned business, for the delivery of 2 drums of activated desiccant (NSN 6850001671676) at a total value of $915.32, with a unit price of $457.66 per drum. The award was issued on July 17, 2026, and requires delivery by August 6, 2026, to the USNS COMFORT T AH 20 at FPO AE 09566 under FOB Destination terms, meaning title and risk transfer upon arrival at the final military address. All shipments must comply with the DLA Vendor Shipping Manual, be marked with the contract and delivery order numbers, transport control number N216376196S113, box identifier BX: 97X4930 5CBX 001 2624 S33189, and receiving depot designator 777, and must not be sent via parcel post due to the moisture-sensitive nature of the desiccant. The contractor is required to adhere to DFARS 252.232-7003 for prompt payment procedures and must comply with the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) priority rating, as this is a rated order under 15 CFR 700. Invoicing must be mailed to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service at P.O. Box 182317, Columbus, OH 43218-2317, and payment is governed by the basic contract terms. Administration is handled by Holly Dunganan of DLA Aviation, with Amanda Parker as the government representative; however, no formal Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative is designated. Acceptance occurs at the destination upon government inspection, and compliance with NSN specifications is mandatory. No options, additional line items, or special requirements beyond packaging, marking, and delivery conditions are specified, and the acquisition was likely awarded under a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable methodology due to the simplicity of the requirement and lack of evaluated non-price factors.
