PISTON, ENGINE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a single-line-item contract to Arkwin Industries, Inc. (CAGE 98391) for the procurement of a piston, engine (NSN/Part 2995011938065) with a total contract value of $48,584.45, effective July 21, 2026. Performance is to be carried out at the contractor’s facility in Bethpage, New York, with no options or extended quantities specified, and the delivery schedule, FOB terms, and specific inspection locations are not detailed in the documentation. The contract is administered by DLA Aviation, with Carl Allen at the contracting office in Richmond, Virginia serving as the point of contact for payments and correspondence, while the Contracting Officer is Dean Allen; a Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative is not identified. The award follows a modification under SF 30 form, citing FAR 43.103(b) and FAR 43.203(b) as authority, and incorporates FAR 52.222-90 as a deviation under DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040, Revision 1, enforcing strict prohibitions against race-based or sex-based stereotyping or scapegoating in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion activities, with mandatory flow-down requirements to all subcontracts and affirmative reporting obligations for subcontractor noncompliance. The NSN 7540-01-152-8070 is referenced for the item, but no technical specifications, MIL-STDs, packaging, preservation, or marking standards are explicitly defined, implying general compliance with applicable federal regulations without detailed technical guidance. The procurement is consistent with a low-dollar, commercially available item acquisition likely awarded under a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, though no formal evaluation factors, weights, or past performance criteria are documented. The contractor is required to maintain compliance with relevant Executive Orders and OMB memoranda, and while the Unique Entity ID is implied through the CAGE code, no socioeconomic status representations or security clearance requirements are stated. Payment is to be processed through the DLA Aviation Paying Office, though the invoicing platform or electronic data interchange system is not specified.
