GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract awarded to PECK & HALE, LLC under contract number SPE8EE25P0377, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency, encompasses the procurement of a Fiber Rope Assembly identified by NSN 4020-00-238-6148, along with associated Government First Article Testing and Production Lot Testing services. The total contract value of $98,100.00 reflects a modification that adjusted the original contract price by adding $2,500 to correct a previously misassigned cost for production lot testing vendor expenses. The contract was awarded on July 21, 2026, following a solicitation issued as SPE8EE-25-Q-0063, with the original response deadline set for February 18, 2025.
