PANEL, STRUCTURAL, AI

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded contract SPE4A726P6457 to THE HANDY TOOL & MFG. CO., INC. (CAGE 91750) on July 21, 2026, for a total value of $230,000 to supply two structural AI panels identified by NSN 1560004981135, supporting defense logistics requirements. The contract is administered by DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, with the contractor located in Brooklyn, New York, and oversight provided by DCMA Northeast at Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts. The contracting officer is Dean Allen, and correspondence should be directed to CARL.ALLEN@DLA.MIL, though the remit-to address and payment office details are not specified. The contract type is not explicitly stated, but the fixed-price nature and lack of option clauses suggest a standard firm-fixed-price arrangement with no identified extensions or additional quantities. The statement of work involves delivery of the specified panels without detailed technical specifications, performance standards, or inspection criteria provided in the available documentation, though compliance with FAR clause 52.222-90, addressing DEI discrimination, is mandatory and must be flowed down to all subcontractors. This clause requires the contractor to avoid any DEI programs involving impermissible preferential treatment, report known subcontractor violations within 14 days, and notify the government if legal challenges arise. No other clauses from Section I, packaging requirements from Section D, inspection details from Section E, or delivery scheduling data from Section F are fully populated. The NAICS code 332312 is listed, but no small business or socioeconomic certifications are affirmed. The solicitation, issued on February 6, 2026, and modified by P00001 on the award date, references Standard Form 30 and allows submission via electronic or physical channels to DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, without specifying page limits, file formats, or a formal deadline. Government audit rights are retained for compliance verification under the DEI clause, and no other special requirements such as security clearances, key personnel, or delivery terms like FOB are documented. The total contract price of $230,000 is the sole financial figure available, with no breakdown of line-item pricing, quantities, or appropriation data provided.
