HANDLING OIL FILTER

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Contract SPE7L526P0812 to CHAND, L.L.C. (CAGE 0D5X4) on July 13, 2026, for the handling of an oil filter identified by NSN 2815015529141, with a total contract value of $195,541.98 under Solicitation SPE7L5-26-T-1274. The performance location is the contractor’s facility at 157 Highway 654, Mathews, LA 70375-2009, and payment will be processed through DLA Land and Maritime in Columbus, Ohio, with Kelly Drees serving as the Contracting Officer and primary point of contact. The contract was issued as a unilateral modification under FAR 13.302(a) and 12.303(a), indicating an administrative action based on prior agreements or established processes, and no formal contract type such as FFP or IDIQ is specified. The only explicitly incorporated clause is FAR 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination, implemented with deviation 2026-00040, requiring compliance with non-discrimination policies related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, but no other clauses, certifications, or representations from the offeror are documented. Packaging, preservation, and marking requirements are not detailed beyond the inclusion of NSN and CAGE codes, and while MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-2073 are contextually implied, they are not formally cited. No inspection criteria, quality standards, FOB terms, delivery schedule, or option periods are specified, and the line item consists of a single undivided amount without quantity or unit price breakdown. The accounting and appropriation data fields remain unpopulated, and no invoicing system is named, though standard DLA practices likely apply. There is no identified Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative, and no evaluation factors, source selection methodology, or socioeconomic status information for the awardee are provided, with the award seemingly based on administrative efficiency rather than competitive evaluation.
