GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract awarded to LOBO VENTURES LTD under contract number SPE4A726P6116, with a total value of $60,001.00, was issued by the Defense Logistics Agency on July 21, 2026, following solicitation SPE4A7-26-T-7228. The work encompasses a Government First Article Test and the provision of a Former, Aircraft component identified by NSN 1560012128996, with performance to occur at the contractor’s facility in San Antonio, Texas. The contract is structured as a modification to an existing agreement under FAR 43.203(b) and incorporates the newly implemented FAR 52.222-90 clause, titled Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, revised under DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040. This clause mandates that the contractor refrain from engaging in racially discriminatory Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practices, flow the clause down to all subcontracts regardless of tier, and report any violations or legal challenges initiated by subcontractors to the Contracting Officer within ten business days. Noncompliance may result in contract termination. The contracting officer is Dean Allen, reachable via CARL.ALLEN@DLA.MIL, with administrative oversight handled by DLA Aviation and the Defense Contract Management Agency South. The contract does not specify detailed inspection locations, delivery schedules, FOB terms, or packaging and marking requirements beyond referencing the contractor’s CAGE code and applicable NSNs, and no formal evaluation factors, weights, or source selection methodology are documented, suggesting a potential Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach given the fixed-price nature and limited scope. Payment will be processed to the contractor’s address in San Antonio, Texas, and invoicing procedures are not explicitly defined, though electronic submission of modifications is permitted, indicating potential integration with digital systems. The NAICS code 541380 is listed for engineering services, yet no socioeconomic status, size certification, or unique entity identifier beyond the CAGE code 1HC54 is provided, and no attachments, inspection standards beyond the requirement for a first article test, or specific quality specifications are detailed in the available documentation.
