The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Firebird Optics LLC, identified by CAGE code 8Z0Z2, a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $11,968.00 under solicitation SPE7L7-25-T-3533, with award issued on July 20, 2026. The contract encompasses the delivery of optical lenses designated by NSN 6650-00-828-6553 and the completion of a Contractor First Article Test under part number 0001S00000053. Performance responsibilities have been updated to include Gooch & Housego Florida Inc., located at 7826 Photonics Drive in Trinity, Florida, with CAGE code 66083, as the principal production and inspection site, replacing the prior location in Northport, New York. Delivery for the first article test has been extended to July 23, 2026, while inspection and acceptance are governed by Procurement Note E06, which mandates that all verification occur at the contractor’s facility, aligning with FOB origin terms. Contract administration has been reassigned to DCMA Southeast in Orlando, Florida, with Matthew Wyant serving as the contracting officer and no designated contracting officer’s representative. Packaging and marking requirements reference applicable CAGE codes and NSN identifiers but do not specify MIL-STD compliance or labeling formats. No detailed evaluation factors, socioeconomic certifications, or special clauses such as security, key personnel, or option periods are included. The contract type is inferred as firm-fixed-price based on the fixed total price, standard CLIN structure, and inclusion of first article testing, though this designation is not explicitly stated. Electronic invoicing mechanisms, remittance details, and accounting identifiers such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN are not provided, and the submission format requires a signed contractor attachment in PDF but lacks explicit formatting or page limits.
