The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Lockheed Martin Corporation a delivery order under contract SPE4AX18D9003 for a single line item: a self-locking nut, BA, identified by NSN 5310-00-579-1761, with a total contract value of $13,637.47. The award was issued on July 14, 2026, under modification P00001 to the original solicitation SPE4A225F0987, which was initially issued on November 14, 2024. The delivery schedule was extended from September 3, 2026, to October 30, 2026, due to supplier disruptions caused by the SPS Jenkintown Fire, with the modification authorized under FAR 43.103(b) and FAR 43.203(b). This adjustment was made under the Strategic Supplier Alliance established on September 6, 2010, which supports a sole-source, relationship-based procurement approach without competition. The contractor’s place of performance is listed as 100 Global Innovation Cir, Orlando, FL, with no separate delivery point specified. The issuing and administering office is DLA Aviation, located in Richmond, VA, with Samantha Colbert serving as the civilian contract administrator and Ray Gryder as the contracting officer. No specific packaging, marking, preservation, inspection criteria, or quality standards were detailed in the available documentation, though NSN and CAGE codes are to be used for identification. The contract does not include enumerated attachments, formal evaluation factors, socioeconomic certifications, or invoicing instructions, and no funding details such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN codes are provided. The acquisition was administered through administrative modification rather than competitive procurement, reflecting an established strategic partnership rather than standard competitive bidding procedures.
