The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Simmonds Precision Products Inc. (CAGE 89305) a firm-fixed-price delivery order valued at $142,480.00 under contract SPE4A123G0011, issued through solicitation SPE4A5-26-T-0179 on July 16, 2026, for the supply of 20 screwjack actuators (NSN 1680-00-350-7147, Part A7606-1). Performance and inspection occur at the contractor’s facility in Vergennes, Vermont, under FOB Origin terms with government responsibility for transportation, and delivery is targeted for May 17, 2027, with an official customer need ship date of September 14, 2026. The contract mandates strict compliance with government standards including MIL-STD-129 for packaging labeling, ASTM D3951 for packaging and preservation, and DLA’s Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, which supersedes other standards when in conflict. Bare items must be marked per RQ017 with a “CRITICAL APPLICATION ITEM” designation, and all shipments must be palletized per RP001 with barcoding for automated handling. Quality assurance follows risk-based verification levels: critical attributes require Verification Level VII with an AQL of 0.1, major attributes Level IV with AQL 1.0, and minor attributes Level II with AQL 4.0, enforced through MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331 sampling. Payment must be processed electronically via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) using cost vouchers or invoice/receiving reports, with no alternative invoicing methods permitted. No contract options, modifications, or socioeconomic certifications are indicated, and while clauses related to veteran employment reporting and sustainable products are included, no affirmative representations from the offeror are documented. The contract incorporates defense information protection requirements under RD002, implying adherence to DFARS cybersecurity standards, though no specific clearance levels are stated. The award reflects a simplified acquisition under DLA’s procurement framework with no negotiated trade-off or best-value rationale explicitly documented.
