ROTOR AND DRIVE GEA

The contract awarded to KITCO LLC under solicitation SPE4A7-26-Q-0219 and identified by contract number SPE4A726P5147 is for the supply of a ROTOR AND DRIVE GEA with NSN 6620000920871 and procurement identifier PR 7012752980, with a total contract value of $848,400.00 and an award date of July 21, 2026. The performance location is set at the contractor’s facility in Provo, Utah, and the procuring agency is the Defense Logistics Agency’s Aviation, ASC Commodities Division. Though the contract type and detailed pricing structure are not explicitly defined, the award stems from a modification of an original contract dated January 13, 2026, and is governed primarily by the inclusion of FAR 52.222-90, “Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors,” as modified by DoD Deviation 2026-00040. This clause imposes strict prohibitions against racially discriminatory DEI activities, requires immediate reporting of subcontractor violations, mandates flow-down of the clause to all subcontracts within the United States, and treats compliance as material to contract performance with potential exposure to False Claims Act liabilities. No specific technical specifications, packaging requirements, inspection criteria, or delivery schedules are detailed beyond the item’s identification. The payment office is located in Richmond, Virginia, and the contracting officer is Dean Allen, who also serves as the point of contact. The contractor’s CAGE code is 34087, and no socioeconomic certifications, size status, or other representations beyond compliance with the DEI clause are documented. The contract includes no listed options, and the only formal attachment referenced is a continuation sheet tied to the modification document. The absence of Section B line-item details, Section D packaging instructions, Section E inspection standards, and Section M evaluation factors indicates the award was based on regulatory compliance rather than competitive technical scoring. All work must occur within the United States, and failure to comply with the DEI clause may result in contract termination.
