GAGE, DIFFERENTIAL, DIAL INDICATING

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a contract to PIONEER INDUSTRIES, LLC (CAGE 66200) for the supply of one unit of a differential dial indicating gauge (NSN 6685-01-366-6956) under solicitation SPE4A5-26-Q-0604, with a total contract value of $19,344.26. The award was issued on July 28, 2026, and the delivery is scheduled to occur 135 days after the order date, with destination delivery to W1A8 DLA DIST SAN JOAQUIN in Tracy, CA. The contract is structured under FOB origin terms, meaning title and risk of loss transfer to the government at the contractor’s shipping point. The item must be packaged and preserved in strict compliance with MIL-STD-2073-1E and marked according to MIL-STD-129, including a special marking code of 05 for delicate instruments, with no mercury or mercury compounds permitted in packaging or preservation per IP056. Bar-coding follows MIL-STD-129, but Item Unique Identification is not required. The contract incorporates a comprehensive set of Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, including requirements related to small business utilization, veteran employment, combating trafficking in persons, paid sick leave, hazard communication, sustainable procurement, prompt payment, and prohibitions on substances like hexavalent chromium and fluorinated aqueous film-forming foam. Additional clauses address restrictions on procurement involving materials sourced from the People’s Republic of China, the Maduro regime, and the Russian Federation, as well as compliance with the Defense Priorities and Allocations System. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination with a zero non-conformance standard under MIL-STD-1916 and ASQ Z1.4, with verification levels for critical, major, and minor defects specified. The payment method is mandatory through Wide Area WorkFlow, and the award was determined using a trade-off process where past performance—particularly SPRS assessments—is significantly more important than price, though cost remains approximately equal in importance to other non-price factors. No contract type or option clauses are explicitly stated, and while administrative and payment details reference DoDAACs and WAWF, specific payment office or COR/COTR contacts are not provided. All offeror representations, including UEI, CAGE code, and socioeconomic status, were expected
