RELAY, ELECTROMAGNET

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) awarded a delivery order under the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract SPE4AX-26-D-P002 to DERCO AEROSPACE, INC. (CAGE 8X044), a small business, for a single item: one electromagnet relay (NSN 5945015385230), with a total contract value of $4.00. The order was issued on July 21, 2026, with delivery required within 300 days from the award date, and FOB terms specify delivery at the contractor’s facility located at 8000 W Tower Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53223-3216. The item must comply with stringent packaging and preservation requirements per MIL-STD-2073-1E, including Preservation Method 41 and specific wrapping and cleaning codes, along with labeling mandates under IPC/JEDEC J-STD-609, particularly for lead finish identification with the ZZ Special Requirements code. Inspection and acceptance occur at origin, requiring compliance with applicable quality assurance provisions including First Article Testing, QAP 16236, and SQAP015385230, supported by detailed attachments such as the Quality Matrix, Clause Matrix, and Lot Payment Schedule from the underlying C-130 Aircraft Product Support Lifecycle (PBL) contract. The contractor is subject to cybersecurity and export control obligations, including mandatory CMMC Level 2 certification and Joint Certification Program approval for handling export-controlled data. Payment will be processed by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, under the local accounting code BX: 97X4930 5CBX 001 2620 S33189, and contract administration is managed by Andrew Davitt, the Local Admin for DLA Aviation, with Ray Gryder as the alternate. The broader contract vehicle has a ceiling value of nearly $51 million for future unpriced NIINs, but this delivery order is a fully priced, limited-scope transaction within that framework, reflecting DLA’s performance-based logistics approach to sustaining C-130 aircraft readiness.
