GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract SPE4A726P4206, awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency to PARTS LIFE INC with CAGE code 4MJR3, is a $62,255.00 modification executed on July 21, 2026, under solicitation SPE4A7-26-Q-0124, to conduct a Government First Article Test and deliver a heat shield for aircraft, identified by NSN 2840011585964. The performance location is established at the contractor’s facility in Moorestown, NJ, and the work is administered by DLA Aviation in Richmond, VA, with oversight by DCMA Mid-Atlantic. The contract incorporates FAR 52.222-90, Revision 1, under DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040, which prohibits racially discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion activities, mandates flowdown of this clause to all subcontracts performed within the U.S., and requires the contractor to report any noncompliance by subcontractors, including legal challenges to the clause. Compliance is material to payment under 31 U.S.C. 3729(b)(4), and failure to adhere may jeopardize contract funding. The NAICS code 541380 classifies the effort as engineering services, though no explicit size status or socioeconomic certifications are provided. No detailed pricing breakdown, delivery schedule, FOB terms, or specific inspection criteria are defined, but the requirement for a First Article Test implies adherence to general military and federal inspection standards, likely aligning with AS9102 and FAR Part 46.4. Marking requirements are inferred through the use of NSN, CAGE, and contract identifiers, suggesting compliance with MIL-STD-130 and MIL-STD-129 for unique item identification and shipment labeling, though these standards are not explicitly cited. Packaging and preservation requirements are not specified, relying on standard DoD defaults. Invoicing is presumed to occur through WAWF as standard for DLA contracts, though not confirmed. The Contracting Officer for administrative matters is Carl Allen, and the payment office is located at 6090 Strathmore Road, Richmond, VA, with no accounting codes, appropriation data, or payment details provided in the documentation. No options, security clearances, key personnel requirements, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are included,
