SANITIZER, HAND

The contract solicitation seeks the procurement of unscented hand sanitizer with a 70% ethyl alcohol base, packaged in 4 fl oz bottles and unitized in packages of 24 each, identified by NSN 8520-01-346-9200. The item must meet strict shelf life requirements of 36 months, non-extendable, with no more than five months elapsed from date of manufacture to delivery to the government. Packaging and marking must conform to Medical Marking Standard No. 1, superseding MIL-STD-129, and follow MIL-STD-2073-1E for preservation and packing, with palletization adhering to DLA Packaging Requirements for Procurement. The product is classified as non-hazardous under FED-STD-313 and must be commercially packaged per ASTM D3951, though DLA’s Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements takes precedence over all other standards. Delivery is required within five days of order placement, FOB destination, to multiple DoD locations including Malmstrom AFB, Holloman AFB, and Williamsburg VA, with the original delivery date set for August 11, 2026. The solicitation is not a small business set-aside, but HUBZone pricing preferences apply unless waived, and offerors must submit required representations regarding business size, socioeconomic status, and telecommunications equipment compliance. Technical data for alternates and a current Safety Data Sheet are mandatory for award consideration; failure to provide either results in non-responsibility. The buyer, Mary-Kathryn Donahue, requires all quotations to be submitted via DIBBS by August 17, 2026. Contract administration mandates electronic submission of payment and receiving reports through WAWF using designated DoDAAC codes, and all contractors must comply with a comprehensive set of DFARS and FAR clauses addressing cybersecurity, hazardous materials disposal, hexavalent chromium prohibitions, export controls, contractor reporting obligations, and restrictions on mandatory arbitration agreements. The contractor must also comply with the Buy American Act and Berry Amendment, with the Berry threshold reduced to $150,000, and ensure proper hazard communication labeling in accordance with OSHA standards, unless exempted by other federal regulations.
