The contract covers the delivery of diesel fuel and other petroleum products across multiple military installations including Scott AFB, Peterson AFB, Tinker AFB, Fort Carson, and others, with a performance period spanning from December 1, 2023, to June 30, 2028. All deliveries are made F.O.B. Destination, meaning the contractor assumes responsibility for transportation and risk until goods are accepted at the final delivery point. Pricing is established at fixed unit rates per delivery vehicle type, with total estimated value exceeding $8.4 million across multiple line items, including diesel fuel, gasoline, and multi-purpose fuel, all referenced by specific NSNs and quantified by tank truck or wagon loads. Invoicing is mandatory through the Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) system, requiring vendors to be registered in SAM.gov and adhere to specific document types such as invoices and receiving reports. Payment is processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using DoDAAC SL4701, with accelerated payments required for small business subcontractors. The contract includes stringent cybersecurity compliance clauses requiring safeguarding of covered defense information per NIST SP 800-171 and mandatory reporting of cyber incidents to the DoD Cyber Crime Center within 72 hours. Inspection and acceptance occur at delivery sites based on established quality assurance standards including ASTM D5798 for E85 fuel and BASIC QAP 52838 for diesel. Packaging and marking must comply with OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard and Federal Standard 313-E, though no specific MIL-STD packaging or bar-coding requirements are mandated. The contractor is subject to small business growth incentives and is subject to full accountability for performance, delivery timelines, cybersecurity compliance, and accurate financial reporting through electronic channels only.
