NUT, SELF-LOCKING, HE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a contract modification SPE4A624PB252/P00002 to Specialty Components & Fasteners, LLC (CAGE 7SK93) for $5,155.14 to address non-conforming self-locking nuts (NSN 5310-01-661-8090) previously supplied under solicitation SPE4A6-24-T-143M. The modification adjusts delivery dates for two CLINs—0002 and 0003—to August 14, 2026, and establishes administrative procedures for returning defective items to the contractor’s facility in Kerrville, TX, for investigation. The contractor is required to refund $2,833.62 to Defense Finance & Accounting Services within 30 days and submit proof of disposal for the non-conforming material to DLA Weapons Support before the CLINs can be formally closed. Payment is processed via check mailed to DFAS in Richmond, VA, with strict annotation requirements, and no electronic invoicing systems like WAWF are utilized. The contract incorporates standard FAR clauses governing changes, default, termination for convenience, and assignment of claims, with no alternate versions or custom modifications applied. The procurement falls under NAICS code 332722 for machine shop and fastener manufacturing, and while the contractor’s socioeconomic status is not formally represented, the CAGE code 7SK93 confirms entity identification. Inspection and acceptance responsibilities reside solely with the Government, with no specific technical standards cited beyond contractual conformity. No packaging, marking, preservation, or quality inspection criteria beyond compliance with contract requirements are specified, and no contracting officer’s representative or technical representative is identified. The contract type is not explicitly stated but exhibits fixed-price characteristics based on fixed quantities and delivery timelines, with no options, ceilings, or indefinite-delivery provisions included.
