All deliveries must be shipped to Camp Curtis Guild at 25 Haverhill St, BLDG L003, Reading, MA 01867, with this address explicitly required on all shipping documentation, despite system-generated DoDAACs pointing to Hanscom AFB, which is strictly prohibited as a delivery location. Items must be delivered within 60 calendar days of award under FOB destination terms with transportation costs borne by the contractor. The contract incorporates numerous FAR and DFARS clauses regarding subcontracting, labor, trafficking, cybersecurity, procurement prohibitions, and payment processes including WAWF electronic invoicing, and requires adherence to strict inspection and acceptance standards under FAR 52.212-4(b). Late or non-conforming submissions will not be evaluated, and the award will be made solely to the qualified low-priced offeror whose quote fully satisfies all solicitation requirements.
