The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency awarded contract SPE7M125P3399 to AIW-ALTON INC (CAGE 84027) on July 15, 2026, for a total value of $127,400 under solicitation SPE7M1-25-Q-0203, utilizing simplified acquisition procedures as permitted by FAR 13.302(a) and 12.303(a). The contract encompasses three line items: miscellaneous supplies, a linear direct valve identified by NSN 4810001393424, and a contractor-conducted first article test for the valve. The place of performance is confirmed as AIW-ALTON INC’s facility in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, while administration and payment functions are managed by DLA Land and Maritime’s Fluid Handling Division based in Columbus, Ohio. The award was issued as a unilateral modification under FAR 13.302(a), indicating a streamlined acquisition process consistent with the contract’s value and commercial item categorization. Contract administration is overseen by Contracting Officer Michael Finken, with no designated COR or COTR listed. The contract incorporates FAR 52.222-90, addressing DEI discrimination by federal contractors, applied with deviation 2026-00040 and administrative fill-ins including the contract number, award date, and CO name. No packaging, marking, preservation, or barcoding requirements are specified, nor are any MIL-STDs referenced. The delivery schedule, quantities, unit prices, and extended prices for each line item are not detailed in the award notice, and no option periods, shipping terms (FOB), or payment system (e.g., WAWF) are explicitly identified. While the solicitation required submissions via SF-30 and continuation sheets, no formal evaluation factors, weighting systems, or award rationale are disclosed. The awardee's size status and socioeconomic certifications are not stated, and no documentation of unique entity ID, security clearance provisions, key personnel requirements, or attachments is present. The contract reflects a minimal documentation approach typical of low-value simplified acquisitions, with administrative and compliance controls focused on the DEI clause and post-award reporting mechanisms via DIBBS.
