The contract encompasses two deliverables: a Government First Article Test and a Metal Tube Assembly identified by NSN 4710010429386. The work is governed under FAR authorities including 13.302(a) and 12.303(a), indicating a simplified acquisition process, though the specific contract type remains undefined. The contractor’s facility is located in Dowagiac, Michigan, but the official place of performance is not explicitly stated. Performance start and end dates, delivery schedules, and FOB terms were not provided, though inspections are expected to occur at the contractor’s facility given the First Article Test requirement, with government oversight conducted by DCMA Ohio River Valley and administered by Contracting Officer Micheal Finken of DLA Land and Maritime. The award was made without disclosed evaluation factors or basis of selection, and no socioeconomic certifications or size status details were included. Pricing is listed in broad line-item terms with no quantities, unit prices, or extended values provided. Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 52.222-90, addressing discrimination based on diversity, equity, and inclusion, is incorporated with a deviation allowing the contractor to affirm they are not subject to certain requirements, marked as completed unilaterally. No attachments, packaging specifications, special requirements, or invoicing platforms beyond DIBBS use were identified. Accounting data is partially populated with agency code 97AS but lacks appropriated funds details, and no COR/COTR was named. The only documented submission channel is DIBBS, and all communications must follow the Standard Form 30 structure with possible use of continuation sheets for additional information.
