GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract award SPE7M223P4300 was issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under solicitation SPE7M2-23-Q-0756 to AIRTRONICS, LLC, with a total value of $104,855.05 and an award date of July 15, 2026. The scope includes a Government First Article Test, a Bearing Housing, and Miscellaneous items, each identified by NSN but without detailed quantities or unit pricing specified. The work is administered by DLA Land and Maritime’s Fluid Handling Division in Columbus, Ohio, with contract oversight conducted by DCMA Mountain Pacific in Lakewood, Colorado, and payment processed through the same office. The contract was issued unilaterally as a modification under FAR 13.302(a) and incorporates the far-reaching FAR 52.222-90 clause addressing DEI discrimination with deviation 2026-00040, marking a unique compliance requirement not commonly seen in standard acquisitions. No other clauses, special requirements, or socioeconomic certifications are explicitly listed, and while the awardee’s CAGE code is 58078 and location is Tucson, Arizona, the place of performance remains unspecified. The period of performance, delivery schedule, FOB terms, and inspection or acceptance criteria are not defined in the available documentation, though the Government retains responsibility for final acceptance. The contract references a Continuation Sheet for additional technical specifications, packaging, inspection standards, and attachment details, but this information was not provided. No invoicing system, payment milestones, or option periods are stated, and the basis of award—whether LPTA or trade-off—cannot be determined due to the absence of evaluation factors or scoring criteria. The entire contract appears to be administratively structured, with critical technical and logistical details deferred to unprovided attachments, leaving the execution reliant on standard federal procurement norms and implied compliance with military packaging and labeling standards such as MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-2073 without explicit mandate.
