DRIVE ASSEMBLY, GUN

The contract solicitation SPE7L1-26-Q-1053 seeks eight units of a Gun Drive Assembly under a simplified acquisition procedure managed by the Department of Defense’s Land Supply Chain through DLA Distribution in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. The delivery deadline is 784 days after award, with a customer need ship date of June 27, 2028, and performance must occur at the DLA Distribution New Cumberland Facility. Although the line item is clearly defined, no unit or total price is provided in the solicitation, rendering the contract value unascertainable and suggesting a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable selection approach where compliance with technical and regulatory requirements takes precedence over cost. Mandatory compliance is enforced through a series of technical and quality requirements including CMMC Level 2 Self-Assessment certification, demilitarization adherence per Category I Munitions List standards per DODM 4160.28-Vol.3, and handling of Covered Defense Information under DFARS obligations. Packaging and marking must strictly conform to MIL-STD-2073-1E and MIL-STD-129, with additional adherence to DLA packaging directives (RP001), including specific preservation methods, labeling, and 2D Data Matrix barcode implementation. Contractors are required to remove all government identification from non-accepted supplies and retain complete supply chain traceability documentation for five years as mandated by DLAD Procurement Note C03 from August 2016. All proposals must be submitted electronically through WAWF, with offerors required to be registered in SAM.gov and WAWF, and must include completed representations and certifications including a valid CAGE or UEI code. Compliance with employment reporting on veterans and sustainable products is required through deviations applied to FAR clauses 52.222-37 and 52.223-23, and while no small business set-aside is in effect, the NAICS code 332994 applies. Inspection and acceptance occur at destination, governed by government personnel using DoDAAC identifiers, and all invoicing must be processed through WAWF per contractual clause 252.232-7006. Offers failing any of the listed technical or compliance conditions will be deemed non-responsive.
