HOSE ASSEMBLY, NONME

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a fixed-price delivery order to SAFRAN ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS CANADA (CAGE 3AD25) under solicitation SPE7M4-26-T-138Q for the supply of 17 nonmetallic hose assemblies (NSN 4720-01-093-4279), with a total contract value of $912.73. The order, issued on July 15, 2026, and delivered under contract SPE7M426P4084, specifies performance at the vendor’s facility in London, Ontario, Canada, with final delivery to DCMA Americas in Ottawa, Ontario, and ultimate destination to the 2nd Supply Depot in Busan, Korea under FOB Origin terms. The product must comply with US Army Drawing 11669437 and adhere to stringent military standards including MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging and preservation, MIL-STD-129 for marking and barcoding, and MIL-STD-130 for bare item identification. The item carries a non-extendable 120-month shelf life requiring precise date labeling and is designated as a source-controlled item requiring traceability to approved design documentation. The contract mandates compliance with CMMC Level 2 cybersecurity requirements, prohibits ByteDance-related applications, and enforces adherence to DLA packaging guidelines (RP001) that mandate air-dry preservation with no chemical inhibitors. Inspection and acceptance occur at the vendor’s facility, with the Government retaining final authority to reject non-conforming lots. Electronic invoicing must be submitted via WAWF, and the contractor must maintain SAM.gov registration and provide a valid Unique Entity ID. The contract includes deviation-enhanced clauses covering veteran employment reporting, sustainable product procurement, subcontracting for commercial items, and a prohibition on ByteDance software, all effective as of February 2026 or June 2023, depending on the clause. The procurement is structured as a delivery order under an IDIQ vehicle, with no option quantities, price flexibility, or extension periods, and no formal award methodology is stated, though the lack of scoring and emphasis on mandatory compliance strongly suggests a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis. The awardee, identified as a small business with potential women-owned status, must also meet export control protocols under ITAR/EAR, submit certification of conformance,
