SPRING ASSEMBLY, FLO

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded KITCO LLC, with CAGE code 34087, a firm fixed price contract numbered SPE4A726V1585 for a single line item, the Spring Assembly, FLO (NSN 2915012643997), at a total value of $15,115.00, with an award date of July 21, 2026, under solicitation SPE4A7-25-T-633T. The contract was issued as a modification, P00001, and the place of performance is tied to KITCO LLC’s facility in Provo, Utah, with contract administration handled by DCMA Salt Lake City. The sole significant contractual requirement is the inclusion of FAR clause 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, effective April 2026 under DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040, Revision 1, which prohibits discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion practices and mandates flow-down to all subcontracts exceeding $50,000. The contractor is obligated to report any subcontractor noncompliance and legal challenges to the clause within ten business days. No other technical, packaging, inspection, or performance specifications are detailed beyond this regulatory compliance requirement, and no traditional contracting elements such as delivery schedules, FOB terms, inspection criteria, or quality standards are specified. The NAICS code 332613 applies, identifying the contractor in the small engine and turbine manufacturing sector, but no socioeconomic certifications or size status are declared. Payment is processed through DLA Aviation’s office in Richmond, Virginia, with Carl Allen serving as the contracting officer, though no COR or COTR is identified. The contract contains no option periods, multiple line items, or pricing breakdowns, reflecting a straightforward, low-value procurement governed primarily by administrative and compliance directives rather than technical or operational performance metrics.
