RELAY ASSEMBLY

The contract award SPE7M126F1672, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the master contract SPE4A124G0043, was awarded to AAR SUPPLY CHAIN, INC (CAGE 1Y249) for a total value of $90,785.10 on July 21, 2026, following solicitation SPE7M5-25-T-653Y. The sole deliverable is a RELAY ASSEMBLY identified by NSN 5945012138696 and part number 7012717064, with performance located at the contractor’s facility in Wood Dale, Illinois. Although the contract type is not explicitly stated, it is inferred to be a firm-fixed-price delivery order based on standard DLA procurement practices for manufactured items under NAICS code 335314. The contract does not specify delivery schedules, quantities, unit pricing, FOB terms, or inspection criteria beyond the item's NSN, and no packaging, labeling, or MIL-STD requirements are documented, though standard military logistics protocols are assumed to apply. A critical and distinctive condition of this contract is the inclusion of FAR 52.222-90, “Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors,” effective as of April 2026 under Deviation 2026-00040. This clause mandates that the contractor refrain from engaging in or facilitating any racially discriminatory Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practices in hiring, promotion, vendor selection, or program participation, and requires immediate reporting of any subcontractor noncompliance or legal challenges to the Contracting Officer. The clause must be flowed down to all subcontracts, except those performed entirely outside the United States, and noncompliance is deemed material under 31 U.S.C. 3729(b)(4), potentially triggering False Claims Act liability. The Contracting Officer is Dean Allen, reachable via CARL.ALLEN@DLA.MIL, with no designated COR or COTR identified. Payment is directed through the DLA Land and Maritime, Maritime Supply Chain office in Columbus, Ohio, but no invoicing method, accounting data (AAC/TAS/ACRN), or payment terms are specified. No attachments, evaluation factors, socioeconomic certifications, or option periods are included in the documentation.
