PIPET, TRANSFER

The contract solicitation SPE2DH-26-T-4155, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the Department of Defense, seeks the procurement of two sterile polyethylene transfer pipettes with NSN 6640-01-693-5717. The requirement is for delivery to USS SAN DIEGO LPD 22, with a firm delivery deadline of 20 days after award and FOB destination terms, placing freight and risk responsibility on the contractor until arrival at the specified military destination. The solicitation, posted on June 8, 2026, with a response deadline of June 11, 2026, is governed by a broad array of FAR and DFARS clauses including standardized provisions for contract type, inspection at destination, payment via WAWF, material requirements, and safeguarding of contractor information systems. Deviations are applied to multiple clauses dated February 2026, reflecting updated regulatory standards. Special requirements mandate adherence to MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging, MIL-STD-129 for marking and barcoding, and the Medical Marking Standard No. 1, which supersedes MIL-STD-129 for medical items. Hazardous materials must comply with OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard, and all ocean shipments must use U.S.-flag vessels unless a waiver is granted with 45 days’ notice. The contractor must provide its Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code, and represent its small business status, particularly if claiming eligibility under 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or SDB programs. The contract includes provisions for accelerated payments to small business subcontractors, prohibition on hexavalent chromium and mandatory arbitration, export control compliance, and requirements to submit hazard labeling for non-exempt hazardous materials prior to award. All submissions are electronically required through DIBBS, and invoicing must be processed via Wide Area WorkFlow. The absence of detailed pricing data, Section M evaluation factors, and exact place of performance beyond the consignee address limits full contract value determination, though unit prices range from approximately $295 to $348 per case.
