KNIFE, GENERAL SURGI

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm-fixed-price contract to SZY HOLDINGS, LLC (CAGE 0AG09) under solicitation SPE2DS-26-T-234F for the procurement of one package of surgical knives, specifically a general surgical handle with a retractable number 15 blade, intended for cold sterilization and single-use, delivered in a package of ten. The contract total is $79.00, with an award date of July 22, 2026, and delivery required within 20 days after the order date, to be shipped FOB destination to the USS SAN ANTONIO LPD 17 at FPO AE 09587. All items must comply with stringent packaging and marking standards, including compliance with DLA’s RP001 for palletization, ASTM D3951 for commercial packaging, and MMS NO. 1 for medical item labeling, which supersedes MIL-STD-129 for this acquisition. Barcoding must follow MIL-STD-129’s automated identification requirements, though specific symbology and placement are not detailed. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination by the government, governed by FAR 52.246-2. The contract includes multiple Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, particularly those addressing safeguarding of covered contractor information systems, cybersecurity incident reporting, subcontracting for commercial services, and prohibitions on hazardous materials and restricted equipment. Notably, deviations were applied to several clauses, including changes, subcontracting, and safeguarding, indicating conditional flexibility. Payment is to be processed through Wide Area WorkFlow, with electronic submissions required under WAWF guidelines, and accelerated payments to small business subcontractors are mandated. The awardee is subject to all socioeconomic and compliance representations, including certifications regarding size status, UEI, CAGE code disclosures, and prohibitions on Chinese military company sourcing and hexavalent chromium use. The contracting officer’s representative and payment office details are unspecified in the record, and no attachments or formal evaluation factors are documented, suggesting this was processed under an automated simplified acquisition threshold mechanism with price as the primary determinative factor.
