GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded DYNAMIX MANUFACTURING LLC (CAGE 9UJF4) a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $2,767.10 under solicitation SPE4A6-25-T-7801, with award issued on July 16, 2026. The contract covers two primary deliverables: completion of a Government First Article Test and the supply of a plain round nut identified by NSN 5310-00-249-1225 and procurement request 7009865567. Performance is to occur at the contractor’s facility in Joplin, Missouri, with the delivery date extended from June 1, 2027, to August 1, 2027, via modification P00001. The award reflects a minimal-dollar value typical of first-article testing procurements, and the basis of award is inferred to be Lowest Price Technically Acceptable, though not formally documented. Contract administration is managed by DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, with oversight delegated to DCMA Great Plains in Bloomington, Minnesota. The contracting officer is Joseph Semien, but no Contracting Officer’s Representative or technical representative is identified. The contract incorporates the clause PROHIBITION ON A BYTEDANCE COVERED APPLICATION (JUN 2023), mandating strict compliance with OMB M-23-13 by banning the use of TikTok or other ByteDance-controlled applications on any equipment used in contract performance, including employee-owned devices, with a requirement to flow this provision down to all subcontractors. Inspection and acceptance are the Government’s responsibility and are expected to occur at the contractor’s facility following successful first-article testing. No packaging, preservation, or marking standards are specified beyond the requirement to label items with NSN, CAGE code, CLIN, and SF-30 identifiers, and no military standards such as MIL-STD-129 or MIL-STD-130 are invoked. There is no indication of socioeconomic certifications, size status, or affirmative representations provided by the offeror, and no invoicing method or accounting data such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN lines are populated. The contract structure follows Standard Form 30 and contains no attachments, no detailed evaluation factors, and no explicit contract type designation beyond inferred firm-fixed-price terms.
