The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a contract for one push switch, NSN 5930014971031, to Associated Aircraft Supply Co. LLC, with a total value of $1,200.23, effective July 30, 2026. The solicitation, SPE7M8-26-T-5198, was processed through DIBBS under a simplified acquisition procedure and may have been awarded automatically, as it did not include first article testing requirements and did not involve additive manufacturing, both of which were absolute disqualifiers. The item must be delivered within 20 days of order placement to FOB destination at the USS Vermont SSN 792, with packaging and marking strictly compliant with MIL-DTL-28786, MIL-STD-2073-1E, and MIL-STD-129, including specific packaging codes and labeling standards for hazardous or radioactive components. The contract mandates adherence to numerous cybersecurity, environmental, and procurement regulations, including NIST SP 800-171 assessment requirements, prohibition of hexavalent chromium and mercury contamination except under narrow exceptions defined by NAVSEA 5100-003D, and restrictions on covered defense telecommunications equipment. All payments must be submitted electronically via WAWF in accordance with DFARS clauses 252.232-7003 and 252.232-7006, and the contractor is required to maintain current representations in SAM, comply with small business program requirements, and register with DLA’s AMPS system within two months to continue doing business. The Berry Amendment threshold applies at $150,000, requiring disclosure of non-domestic materials if applicable. The contractor is also subject to whistleblower protections, electronic invoicing mandates, transportation by sea requirements, and prohibitions on arbitration agreements and trafficking in persons. All technical and quality requirements are governed by the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, with destination inspection and FOB delivery terms enforced as part of acceptance criteria.
