PIPE, EXHAUST

This contract, identified as SPE7LX-26-U-8572, is an indefinite-delivery contract issued by the Department of Defense’s Strategic Acq Program Directorate for the procurement of exhaust pipe items with NSN 2990-01-291-5878. The contract specifies an estimated quantity of 31 units, though this is not a guaranteed purchase, as it is subject to future delivery orders under a guaranteed minimum of 4 units and a maximum contract value of $350,000. Delivery is required within 76 days of award, with FOB Origin terms meaning title and risk transfer to the government upon shipment from the contractor’s facility. All items must be packaged in compliance with ASTM D3951, but the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements supersedes this standard where applicable. Packaging and labeling must strictly adhere to MIL-STD-129, including barcoding, Unit of Issue and Quantity per Unit Pack details, and hazardous material warnings as per 29 CFR 1910.1200. Palletization must follow RP001, DLA’s Packaging Requirements for Procurement. The contract incorporates numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, many modified under Deviation 2026-00038, impacting areas including trafficking in persons, employment eligibility verification, sustainable products, hazardous material identification, small business representation, cybersecurity safeguarding, and system for award management maintenance. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, with the government responsible for both functions. Invoicing must be conducted electronically via Wide Area WorkFlow, and all submissions require the Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code. The contractor must declare any hazardous materials and provide label submissions prior to award, ensuring compliance with OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard and MIL-STD-129. No evaluation factors are specified, making this a non-competitive, simplified acquisition likely awarded on a lowest-price technically acceptable basis. The contract is administered through the DLA Procurement system, with the contracting officer and logistics points of contact designated via administrative forms and the DLA BSM Internet Bid Board System, which is the exclusive portal for proposal submission.
