TAYRONA INVESTMENTS LLC, operating as a small business with SDVOSB, EDWOSB, and 8(a) certifications, has been awarded a delivery order under contract SPE60525D4511 for the supply of 3,500 units of automotive gasoline (MUR) at a total price of $19,419.37, with performance scheduled between July 28 and July 30, 2026. The award, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency through its Energy, Post, Camps, and Stations office, falls under a long-term requirements-type fixed-price contract with economic price adjustments, valid from May 1, 2025, through October 31, 2029. The item is to be delivered FOB destination to multiple locations across California and Utah, including Vandenberg Space Force Base, Lompoc, Herlong, San Diego, Bryce Canyon, Kings Canyon, Three Rivers, and Mendota, with inspection and acceptance occurring at each delivery point by government representatives. Delivery must comply with the WAWF invoicing system, and all documentation must adhere to DFARS and ANSI X12 standards for unit of measure reporting and receiving reports. The contract incorporates critical cybersecurity requirements under DFARS 252.204-7012, mandating full implementation of NIST SP 800-171 security controls to safeguard covered defense information, with mandatory cyber incident reporting to the DoD DIB portal within 72 hours of discovery, forensic preservation of affected systems, and flow-down obligations to all subcontractors. The contractor’s status as a small business certified under multiple socioeconomic programs validates compliance with FAR and DFARS set-aside provisions, including the 8(a) and SDVOSB programs. Packaging and marking standards are minimally specified, requiring only the inclusion of SHIP TO CODE, S/R ACCOUNT NUMBER, S/R VOUCHER NO., and BILL OF LADING NO. on each shipment without reference to MIL-STDs, and no preservation or barcoding requirements are imposed. Payment must be processed exclusively through WAWF using the DoDAAC SL4701, with inquiries directed to the DLA Direct Delivery Tech Team. Despite the overall contract value being listed at approximately $33.9 million across multiple deliverables, this specific order is a narrow, fixed-price line item for gasoline supply with no option quantities or pricing
