GASOLINE, AUTOMOTIVE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a delivery order under base contract SPE60524D1005 to Okinawa Idemitsu K.K. (CAGE J8391), a small, economically disadvantaged women-owned business, for the supply of automotive gasoline (NSN 9130-001487103) to U.S. military installations across Okinawa, Japan. The total contract value for this delivery order is $507,106.06, with deliveries scheduled to occur from November 3, 2024, through July 30, 2029, under FOB destination terms that place all transportation risk and cost on the contractor. The gasoline must be delivered to designated military sites including Kadena Air Base, Camp Hansen, Camp Butler, Camp Courtney, and others, with inspection and acceptance conducted by U.S. government personnel at the point of delivery in accordance with specific Quality Assurance Plans referenced in Attachment II. The contract includes quantity variances of plus or minus 10 percent for certain line items and incorporates an escalator mechanism tied to the Platts Japan Unleaded fuel price index to adjust for market fluctuations. The contracting officer for the base contract is Mary Richardson, and Candy Cross serves as the primary administrative contact. The contractor is required to comply with Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) regulations and adhere to commercial item acquisition procedures under FAR 52.212-1, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, and 52.212-5, indicating a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable source selection approach. Invoicing must be processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service at a designated Columbus, Ohio address, with payment terms of Net 30 days, and all documentation must reference the appropriate NSN, CLIN, and delivery identifiers for traceability. Although critical packaging, preservation, and labeling standards such as MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-2073 are not explicitly defined in the available documentation, compliance with general DoD logistics practices and the contract’s referenced fuel specifications and quality assurance plans is mandatory. The base contract is structured as an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity agreement, and this award represents one of multiple potential delivery orders under that framework.
