NIPPLE, SPECIAL

The contract is for the procurement of one unit of a special nipple identified by NSN 4730016447554 and part number 0209713 from WALKER MILLER EQUIPMENT COMPANY, INC., with a delivery requirement of 10 days after award. The item must be delivered FOB Origin, with no quantity variance permitted, and is subject to inspection and acceptance at the destination. Packaging must comply with ASTM D3951, but all DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements take precedence, including RP001 for palletization and MIL-STD-129 for marking and labeling, which mandates adherence to standardized unit of issue, quantity per unit pack, and barcoding requirements. The delivery address is in Huntsville, Alabama, and shipment must be sent via the fastest traceable means, explicitly excluding parcel post, with a required shipment reference of RDD 555. The contract strictly prohibits the use or incorporation of any Class I ozone-depleting chemicals, overriding any conflicting specification requirements without relieving overall product performance obligations, and any substitute chemicals must be pre-approved unless already authorized. Compliance with hazardous material handling is enforced through 29 CFR 1910.1200 and MIL-STD-129, requiring proper labeling, SDS submission before award, and advance notification to the Contracting Officer for any radioactive materials exceeding specified thresholds. The contract incorporates numerous FAR and DFARS clauses addressing equal opportunity, trafficking in persons, employment verification, sustainable products, cybersecurity via NIST SP 800-171, and subcontracting for commercial items, with specific deviations applied. Offerors must provide UEI and CAGE codes, submit representations on small business status and socioeconomic certifications, and comply with submission requirements through the DIBBS portal by August 17, 2026, using PDF format. Invoicing must be processed through WAWF, and all work must align with the DLA Master List and referenced military standards to meet acceptance criteria. The contract type and award basis are not specified, and no formal attachments section exists, though all referenced documents must be accessed externally.
