NUT, SELF-LOCKING, PL

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a contract to BRIGHT LIGHTS USA, INC (CAGE 0RMF7) for the procurement of 182,160 self-locking nuts (NSN 5310007703903) at a total price of $182,160.00, with the award issued on July 21, 2026, under solicitation SPE4A6-25-T-45CW and contract number SPE4A626PH940. The contract was modified via P00001, which incorporated FAR 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, as a deviation under DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040, Revision 1, requiring the contractor to prohibit discriminatory DEI practices in recruitment, hiring, and subcontracting, to report any known violations by subcontractors, and to flow down the clause to all domestic subcontracts. The place of performance is the contractor’s facility in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, with delivery expected to be completed in the United States. The contracting officer is Dean Allen of DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, and no Contracting Officer’s Representative or technical representative is identified. The total contract value is based on a unit price of $1.00 per nut, with no option quantities, pricing tiers, or ceiling values specified. Packaging, marking, and preservation requirements are not detailed beyond referencing the NSN, CAGE code, and contract number for identification, and no MIL-STD specifications are cited. Inspection and acceptance procedures are not explicitly defined, but acceptance authority rests with the government. Payment is to be processed by DLA Aviation at its Richmond, VA office, though remittance details and invoicing platform (e.g., WAWF) are not provided. The NAICS code is 332722, but no socioeconomic status or small business certification is confirmed. The award appears to have followed a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, given the straightforward pricing and lack of competitive evaluation factors documented. No other contract clauses, attachments, or special requirements beyond the DEI clause are present in the available documentation.
