GOVERNMENT FIRST ARTICLE TEST

The contract award SPE4A725P3565, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency to Honeycomb Company of America, Inc. with CAGE code 99115, is for a total value of $16,771.04 and was awarded on July 14, 2026, under solicitation SPE4A7-24-T-370P. The contract encompasses two line items: a Government First Article Test and a Cover, Access, Aircraft with NSN 1560-00-775-7871. Performance is centered at the contractor’s facility in Sarasota, Florida, with administrative oversight managed by DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, and contract administration handled by DCMA Southeast in Orlando, Florida. The contract includes a modification, P00002, that extends delivery dates for CLIN 0001 to August 3, 2028, and CLIN 0002 to September 7, 2026, due to dependencies on the success of a parent First Article Test referenced under contract SPE4A724PH695; should the parent test fail, this order may be terminated. Contract administration authority is grounded in FAR 43.103(b) and FAR 43.203(b), with FAR 52.209-4 incorporated to enforce contractor ethics and conduct standards. Inspection and acceptance responsibilities rest with the government, primarily conducted at the origin or government test sites, though no specific MIL-STD or technical quality specifications are detailed. The award does not specify FOB terms, invoicing methods, payment details, or line-item pricing beyond the total contract amount, nor does it clarify the contract type or contain full Section I clauses. No socioeconomic certifications, size status, or UEI information are provided, and while the NAICS code 541380 is listed, no corresponding size standard or set-aside designation is indicated. The contract reflects minimal specifications for packaging, marking, or transportation, with reliance on standard DoD logistics identifiers like NSN and CAGE code. Submission and response procedures are consistent with paper-based amendment processes under DIBBS, with no electronic submission requirements outlined.
