GASKET

DLA awarded a fixed-price delivery order, SPE4AX26F300E, to DERCO AEROSPACE, INC. (CAGE 8X044), a Small Disadvantaged Business and Women-Owned Small Business, for 71 units of a gasket (NSN 5330015733130, P/N AG768000-33) at a total contract value of $71.00, with a unit price of $1.00. The order, issued under the broader contract vehicle SPE4AX26DP001 and associated with the C-130 AC PBL program, requires delivery FOB origin by April 19, 2027, within a 300-day window from the award date of July 21, 2026. The contractor must comply with stringent military packaging and marking standards including MIL-DTL-117 for UV-sensitive items, MIL-STD-129 for label and barcode requirements, and DLA’s RP001 packaging guidelines, with no asbestos permitted per FED-STD-313. Inspection and acceptance occur at origin, governed by MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331 with a zero-defect criterion for all classified attributes—Critical (AQL 0.1), Major (AQL 1.0), and Minor (AQL 4.0). The order is rated under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS), mandating priority treatment over non-rated orders. Payment will be processed via voucher through DEF FIN AND ACCOUNTING SVC in Columbus, OH, using accounting identifier BX: 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189. The contracting officer is Bobby Hornsby at DLA Aviation in Richmond, VA, with administrative support from DCMA Great Lakes. Although the base contract structure resembles an IDIQ, this specific order is a single-line, non-option delivery with no negotiated quantities beyond the 71-unit requirement, and final pricing for other NIINs under the parent contract is to be settled via bilateral modification within 90 days. All proposals must be submitted through the DLA eProcurement portal, and the contractor’s socioeconomic certifications trigger ongoing compliance with FAR 19.102, 19
