FITTING ASSEMBLY, TR

DERCO AEROSPACE, INC. (CAGE 8X044), a small business, has been awarded a delivery order under the IDIQ contract SPE4AX26DP001 for a single line item: FITTING ASSEMBLY, TR (NSN 1560006721816), at a unit price of $1.00, resulting in a total contract value of $34.00. The award was issued on July 16, 2026, by the Defense Logistics Agency, specifically through DLA Aviation, and is administered under the C-130 AC PBL performance-based logistics program. Delivery is FOB origin at DERCO’s facility in Milwaukee, WI, with physical acceptance occurring at the same point, and the final destination for shipment is DLA Distribution’s New Cumberland, PA facility. The contract vehicle has a maximum ceiling value of over $50 million, though this order represents a minimal, non-recurring fulfillment of an unpriced NIIN. All packaging and marking must comply with MIL-STD-129, including required barcoding and labeling, while hazardous materials are subject to FED-STD-313 and TQ IP025. The supplier is bound by DLA-specific quality and administrative clauses such as RT001, RQ001, and RA001, and must adhere to the overarching DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, which supersedes other standards. The contract requires affirmative compliance with export control regulations (ITAR/EAR) verified through the Joint Certification Program and mandates adherence to DFARS 252.204-7012 for handling Controlled Unclassified Information. A First Article Test is required, with the contractor responsible for providing prepaid return shipping for test items. Invoices must be submitted in hard copy, with four copies sent to the Columbus, OH payment office, and no electronic invoicing is referenced. Payment terms are Net 30 days. The contracting officer is Andrew Davitt, with Ray Gryder serving as the local administrative point of contact. No standard FAR clauses are cited, and evaluation factors for award are not specified, although the sealed-bid nature and fixed unit pricing suggest an LPTA methodology. The order is part of a larger indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract aimed at sustaining C-130 aircraft logistics through on-demand fulfillment of unpriced items
