HOSE ASSEMBLY, NONME

The contract award SPE7M126F2801, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the master contract SPE4A124G0043, was awarded to AAR SUPPLY CHAIN, INC (CAGE 1Y249) on April 15, 2026. Although the original solicitation SPE7M1-26-T-6520 identified a single line item for a nonmetallic hose assembly with NSN 4720-00-839-8437, the contract has since been fully modified via SF-30 to cancel this line item, reducing the quantity to zero and resulting in a current contract value of $0. Despite the cancellation, the contract retains a framework of stringent technical, environmental, and logistical requirements. The item was designated as critical, requiring compliance with strict material specifications including T.F.E. 1/8 inch, configuration management per RQ002, and removal of government identification per RQ011. Packaging and marking must adhere to MIL-STD-129 and ASTM D3951, with DLA’s RP001 and Master List taking precedence. Product sustainability is mandated through compliance with USDA BioPreferred, EPA Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines, ENERGY STAR, and prohibitions on Class I ozone-depleting chemicals pursuant to Deviation 2025-O0004 applied to FAR 52.223-23. The contractor is required to operate under a fixed-price arrangement, with terms governed by standard clauses including termination for convenience, default, and a pre-filled Wide Area WorkFlow payment instruction clause. All invoicing must be submitted electronically via WAWF, and the government assumes transportation costs under a FOB payment method designation, despite the FOB origin marking. The awardee certified as a small business and affirmed compliance with environmental standards, but claimed no additional socioeconomic designations. Delivery was originally scheduled within 450 days after the delivery order, with a target completion date of July 9, 2027, and performance to occur at the logistics center in Tracy, CA. No attachments or formal evaluation factors are documented, and the contracting officer’s representative remains unidentified, with primary administrative contacts limited to the ordering officer and the pay office in Columbus, OH.
