HOSE ASSEMBLY, NONME

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm-fixed-price contract to R P M SUPPLY CORPORATION (CAGE 4T958) for the procurement of 17 units of a nonmetallic hose assembly (NSN 4720014948154) at a total price of $19,550.00, with an award date of July 16, 2026. The contract, issued under solicitation SPE7M4-26-T-131V and awarded via simplified acquisition procedures, requires delivery to the DDSP New Cumberland Facility in Pennsylvania by September 10, 2026, under FOB origin terms, with the government assuming transportation costs and risk of loss from the origin point. Compliance with MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging and preservation, including air-evacuated, dry climate controls and unitized packaging per DLA RP001, is mandatory, alongside full adherence to MIL-STD-129 for standardized marking, labeling, and 2D Data Matrix barcoding that includes NSN, CAGE code, lot number, and quantity. Hazardous materials must be labeled per 29 CFR 1910.1200 unless exempt under applicable federal statutes. The contract incorporates a comprehensive set of Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses governing contractor responsibilities, including employment eligibility verification, combating human trafficking, sustainable products, patent indemnity, inspection at destination, and default provisions. Specialized clauses address cybersecurity safeguards through NIST SP 800-171 requirements, supply chain risk mitigation, and the protection of contractor-reported cyber incident information. Government ownership of work products and restrictions on disclosure of sensitive information are enforced via DFARS clauses, while whistleblower rights and compensation rules for former DoD officials are also mandated. Invoicing must be submitted through Wide Area WorkFlow, with payments processed by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service at Columbus, Ohio. The contracting officer is Carrie Barnes, and Megan Edelman serves as the local contract administrator. The contract contains no options, no price variance allowances, and no subcontracting restrictions beyond standard commercial item provisions, reflecting a straightforward, low-value acquisition focused entirely on compliance with military packaging, marking, and safety standards.
