PISTON

The contract awarded to ARKWIN INDUSTRIES, INC. under CAGE code 98391 is a modification to solicitation SPE4A7-25-T-591C, resulting in contract number SPE4A726P5870 with a total value of $33,721.16, awarded on July 21, 2026. The sole deliverable is a piston identified by NSN 2995012047452, though quantitative, pricing, and delivery schedule details are not specified in the documentation. The contract was issued under the Defense Logistics Agency’s Aviation division, with payment and administration handled through DLA Aviation in Richmond, Virginia, and oversight conducted by DCMA Northeast at Hanscom Air Force Base. The contracting officer is Dean Allen, and while no COTR is named, DCMA personnel assume technical oversight responsibilities. The primary regulatory focus of the contract is compliance with FAR 52.222-90, modified by DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040 Revision 1, which mandates the contractor refrain from implementing DEI programs that constitute unlawful discrimination and requires flowdown to subcontracts, barring those outside the United States. No other special requirements, such as security clearances, OCI provisions, or option clauses, are included. Packaging, marking, inspection, acceptance, and technical specifications for the piston are not detailed in the contract documents. The contractor’s size status or socioeconomic certifications are not declared, and no UEI number is provided beyond the CAGE code. Invoicing is expected to follow standard DoD practice through WAWF, though not explicitly confirmed. The contract was modified unilaterally under FAR 43.203(b), indicating an administrative change to align with federal directives rather than a competitive procurement. The place of performance and FOB terms remain undefined, and no attachments or formal evaluation factors were included in the award documentation.
