The delivery order is issued under the broader IDIQ contract vehicle SPE60525R0214, which has a ceiling value of approximately $9.6 million, though this specific order is limited to the single line item for diesel fuel. Performance is FOB destination at multiple military installations in North Carolina, primarily around Cherry Point and Butner, with delivery required between July 20 and July 27, 2026, under a master period of performance extending from January 3, 2026, to October 31, 2028. The fuel must meet Grade 1-D S15 ultra-low sulfur diesel specifications and comply with QAP 52838 and ASTM standards for quality, with inspection and acceptance occurring solely at the final delivery point by government representatives. Payment is governed by the WAWF system, with invoices submitted to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, and subject to a daily economic price adjustment mechanism tied to market indices. The contractor is a Women-Owned Small Business certified under the WOSB program and must adhere to stringent cybersecurity requirements, including full compliance with NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2, mandatory reporting of cyber incidents to DIBNet within 72 hours, preservation of forensic data for 90 days, and flow-down of these obligations to any subcontractors. Packaging and labeling requirements reference OSHA Hazard Communication Standard for hazardous material identification but do not specify MIL-STD packaging standards. The contract includes DFARS clauses for payment under fixed-price delivery orders, rights in technical data, cloud computing services, and cyber incident reporting, with no COTR or COR named in the documentation. All contractual obligations are enforced through the SF-1449 form, which must be submitted electronically or via signed PDF, and the contractor is required to manage covered defense information systems with no deviation from NIST controls without prior DoD CIO approval.
