ROSARY

The contract award SPE1C126F5297, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the broader IDIQ contract SPE1C125D0088, is a delivery order for 20 rosaries (NSN 9925013539310) at a total price of $24.00, with delivery required by August 3, 2026. The awardee, MICHIGAN CHURCH SUPPLY CO INC (CAGE 1E401), operates under an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity framework for Christian religious equipment, with the potential for multiple award years up to five twelve-month tiers, though this specific order is a single line item with no option quantities. FOB Destination terms apply, meaning title and risk transfer to the Government upon arrival at various destination points specified on DD Form 1155, and the contractor’s facility in Mount Morris, Michigan, is not the delivery location. Invoicing must be submitted exclusively through Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), using authorized document types and the VIM-ASAP method as mandated by the Directorate of Clothing and Textiles, with payment to be processed via the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using DoDAAC SL4701 and a designated appropriation code. The contract incorporates a comprehensive set of Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, including requirements for contractor ethics, whistleblower protections, prohibitions on contracting with Kaspersky Lab and other covered entities, restrictions on telecommunications equipment, and compliance with labor standards such as minimum wage and paid sick leave under executive orders. The contractor must affirm compliance with employment eligibility verification and privacy training, and is subject to the Alternate I versions of clauses regarding subcontractor sales restrictions and privacy training. Although packaging and marking details referencing MIL-STD standards are not explicitly specified, all shipments must be properly marked with contract data blocks for traceability. Additional special requirements pertain to ocean transportation, mandating documentation of efforts to use U.S.-flag vessels, submission of ocean bills of lading with ten required data elements, and a final representation on vessel usage with each invoice; failure to comply may lead to invoice rejection. The award was made through a trade-off process emphasizing technical capability and past performance over price, with the Government retaining the right to inspect and accept goods at destination based on conformity to all specifications. The contract also includes full flow-down obligations for subcontractors above the simplified acquisition threshold, along with representations
