GEARSHAFT, SPUR

Contract SPE7L126V9053 was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime on May 4, 2026, to H C Merchandisers, Inc. for the procurement of 38 spur gearshafts (NSN 3040010040628). The original award value was $50,635.00 with delivery terms set as FOB Destination to Columbus, Ohio, and a required delivery window of 140 days from the order date. The contract was governed by simplified acquisition procedures and required strict adherence to MIL-STD-129 for marking and labeling, ASTM D3951 for packaging, and NIST SP 800-171 for cybersecurity and the safeguarding of covered defense information. On August 10, 2026, the government issued administrative modification P00001, which canceled CLIN 0001 in its entirety. This action was taken because a counter-offer submitted by the contractor on August 7, 2026, was determined to be unacceptable. Consequently, the original purchase order was withdrawn, reducing the total contract value to $0.00 and effectively nullifying the procurement of the gearshafts.
