The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a fixed-price requirements contract under SPE60524D4502 to BRZ INVESTMENT & CONSULTING LLC, a small disadvantaged business and women-owned small business, for the delivery of automotive gasoline to multiple U.S. military installations. The contract, effective November 1, 2023, with a period of performance extending through June 30, 2028, encompasses multiple delivery points including Fort Carson, Scott AFB, Peterson AFB, Fort Riley, Minneapolis, Del Rio, and Colorado Springs, all requiring FOB destination delivery as specified in FAR clause 52.247-34. The contractor is obligated to transport fuel via tank trucks using standard camlock fittings during business hours, with deliveries subject to mandatory site escorts and prior coordination with designated point of contact personnel. Payment must be processed exclusively through the Wide Area WorkFlow system with electronic funds transfer, and all invoicing must follow DFARS Appendix F requirements. The total estimated value exceeds $7.3 million based on the visible line items, though the full scope likely includes additional undetermined quantities under the requirements-based structure. The contract includes stringent cybersecurity and data safeguarding requirements through DFARS clauses 252.204-7012, 252.204-7009, and 252.204-7014, mandating compliance with safeguarding covered defense information and reporting cyber incidents. Hazard communication adheres to OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard and Globally Harmonized System labeling requirements, with product identified by NSN 9130001487103 and DODAAC codes. The contract promotes small business participation through clauses requiring accelerated payments to small business subcontractors and advancing small business growth. No formal packaging, preservation, or barcoding standards are specified beyond labeling, and no military standards such as MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-130 are referenced. The award was issued as a total small business set-aside, with the contractor required to maintain eligibility under the Women-Owned Small Business program and comply with federal transparency and reporting obligations. Contract administration is managed by DLA Energy, with contracting officers and administrative support contacts assigned for oversight and invoicing coordination.
