STEM, FLUID VALVE

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded contract SPE7MC26V3598 to PCX INC (CAGE 32DV7) for the procurement of six STEM, FLUID VALVES (NSN 4810000359894) at a total price of $7,225.02, with delivery required by October 13, 2026. The contract is FOB origin and specifies delivery to a designated warehouse in Tracy, California. Performance is governed by a range of applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement clauses, including cybersecurity requirements under NIST SP 800-171 and safeguarding of contractor information systems, with deviations noted for several clauses issued in February 2026. The contractor must comply with MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging and preservation, which mandates cleaning and drying without the use of preservation or wrap materials, while strictly prohibiting mercury or mercury compounds. All items must be marked and barcoded in accordance with MIL-STD-129, and electronic invoicing is mandatory through the Wide Area WorkFlow system. The contract includes requirements for hazard communication compliance, with the contractor responsible for submitting hazard warning labels and Material Safety Data Sheets for any non-exempt hazardous materials prior to award. Supply chain risk and prohibitions on covered defense telecommunications equipment are enforced via specific clauses, and subcontracting for commercial products or services is permitted under revised clauses allowing deviations. Inspection and acceptance occur at the destination, with the government retaining sole authority to accept or reject delivery. The awardee must possess a valid Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code, and maintain accurate size and socioeconomic status representations in the System for Award Management. Point of contact for contract administration includes Paula McClary for primary correspondence, Natalya Radyk as the contracting officer, and William Dilts as the local administrator. No formal Section J attachments or detailed evaluation factors were identified, and while the contract type was not explicitly stated, the fixed-price nature of the only line item and the use of FAR 52.243-1 suggest a firm-fixed-price structure.
