FUS E, INCLOSED LINK

Contract SPE7M524V6751 was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime to International Television Corporation for the procurement of enclosed link fuses, identified by NSN 5920-01-123-5212. While the initial award notice lists a total contract price of 530.00 dollars, subsequent contract actions indicate significant performance issues. Modification P00001 was issued to revoke the government's acceptance of 212 units due to non-conformance with dimensional requirements specified in standard A-A-55569/1D, as well as defects in packaging and marking. As a result of these deficiencies, the government has demanded a total refund of 446,162.00 dollars, which includes the unit prices of the defective hardware and 750.00 dollars in administrative costs. This recovery action is being executed pursuant to FAR 52.246-2 and FAR 32.604, with payments directed to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Columbus Center via Pay.gov. The modification also established administrative line items for the physical return of the non-conforming parts to the contractor's facility in Long Beach, California, and updated the local administration of the contract to Stephen Benner.
