GLOVES, CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE

The contract requires the procurement of 1 box of 100 disposable, non-sterile, nitrile chemical protective gloves with specific technical characteristics: green in color, powder-free, chlorinated, latex-free, silicone-free, antistatic, with a smooth exterior surface and beaded cuff; glove length must be 240 mm (9.5 inches), palm thickness 0.12 mm (4.7 mil), and finger thickness 0.16 mm (6.2 mil). The unit of issue is a box of 100, with delivery required 20 days after the order date to a destination in San Antonio, Texas, under FOB Destination terms, meaning the contractor assumes risk and freight costs until delivery. Packaging must comply with DLA’s RP001 requirements and Medical Marking Standard No. 1, superseding MIL-STD-129 for medical items, with all hazardous material labeling conforming to 29 CFR 1910.1200.

The contract incorporates numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement clauses governing cybersecurity, environmental compliance, labor practices, and acquisition restrictions, including requirements to safeguard covered defense information per NIST SP 800-171, prohibit hexavalent chromium and covered defense telecommunications equipment from foreign adversaries, restrict mandatory arbitration agreements, and ensure compliance with export controls and trafficking in persons prohibitions. Offerors must be registered in SAM and provide a valid Unique Entity ID and CAGE code, and must represent their small business status including any socioeconomic classifications such as HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB. Invoicing must be performed electronically through WAWF, and acceptance occurs at the destination facility by government representatives. While no unit price is specified, past transactional data suggests pricing historically ranged between $13.25 and $18.00 per box, though current pricing is unconfirmed. The procurement is governed under a simplified acquisition framework, suggesting an evaluation approach based on lowest price technically acceptable, and all technical and quality requirements are referenced from the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality
