SWIVEL JOINT, HYDRAU

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded contract SPE7M326P0645 to KNDS DEFENCE UK LIMITED, identified by CAGE code K7705, for the procurement of a single item: a SWIVEL JOINT, HYDRAU with NSN 4730-12-366-8145, at a total contract price of $457.09. The award was issued on July 15, 2026, under the simplified acquisition procedures of FAR 13.302(a), following modification P00001 to the original contract dated February 13, 2026. This modification adjusted the delivery date for the line item from May 15, 2026, to August 15, 2026, and incorporated the First Destination Transportation accounting code S8MF to track associated logistics costs. The contract was administered by DLA Land and Maritime’s Fluid Handling Division, with contract administration handled by DCMA Europe, and the sole point of contact for administrative matters is Contracting Officer Megan Edelman. No other line items, options, or pricing tiers are included, and the transaction qualifies as a commercial item acquisition under a firm fixed-price structure. The contractor, based in the United Kingdom, is not subject to U.S. small business or socioeconomic set-aside requirements, and no representations, certifications, or socioeconomic claims are applicable. The place of performance is not explicitly defined, though delivery is expected to occur within the United States, with transportation costs accounted for under FDT S8MF. No packaging, inspection, or quality standards are specified in the documentation beyond the use of the national stock number, and there is no mention of military standards, testing protocols, or acceptance criteria. The solicitation was issued as SPE7M3-26-T-2068, and while electronic submission via DIBBS is implied, the process also accepts traditional methods such as letter or telegram. No contracting officer’s representative or technical representative is identified, and no additional clauses, attachments, or special requirements—such as security, export controls, or OCI provisions—are referenced, indicating a minimal administrative and technical burden consistent with the low monetary value and commercial nature of the procurement.
