DETECTOR, GAS

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under contract SPE7M125D5000 to SafeWare Inc, identified by CAGE code 1DCA7, for the procurement of a gas detector with NSN 6665-01-691-0256, at a total contract price of $219.66. This transaction falls under an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) framework issued on February 3, 2025, with an award date of July 31, 2026, and a base performance period of 1,095 days. The delivery is FOB origin from the contractor’s facility in Lanham, Maryland, with government acceptance occurring at the destination. Despite minimal line-item detail, the contract reflects a small-dollar transaction that adheres to broader administrative and compliance structures. The contract enforces a full suite of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) clauses covering procurement integrity, anti-kickback measures, labor protections, trafficking prevention, drug-free workplace mandates, and Buy American requirements, including Alternate I for the Buy American clause and a class deviation for the American flag acquisition requirement. Specific cybersecurity compliance is mandated through DFARS clauses 252.204-7012 and 252.204-7020, requiring adherence to NIST SP 800-171 for safeguarding controlled unclassified information, mandatory cyber incident reporting within 72 hours via DIBnet, and compliance with assessment levels ranging from self-assessment to government-conducted evaluations. Subcontractors must also flow down these cybersecurity obligations and maintain recent NIST assessments. Invoicing is exclusively processed through Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), with payments routed through Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio. Packaging and marking mandates require contract and delivery order numbers to be block-printed on all containers and documentation, though no military standards or barcoding specifications are referenced. The award supports an 8(a) program participant, with socioeconomic status and self-certifications implied through the structure but not fully documented in the provided materials. The contract’s evaluation basis appears to lean toward Lowest Price Technically Acceptable, though not explicitly defined, with pricing tied to firm fixed-unit rates and transportation costs estimated conservatively.
