TAPE, INSULATION, ELECTRICAL

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a fixed-price indefinite-delivery contract to Aircraft & Commercial Enterprises, CAGE 8Z281, under solicitation SPE4A626F254H for the procurement of electrical insulation tape identified by NSN 5970-00-949-4846. The award date was July 19, 2026, and the contract is structured as a simplified indefinite-delivery vehicle allowing multiple delivery orders under pre-negotiated terms. Although three identical contract line items each list an extended price of $350,000, the total contract value is capped at $350,000, indicating administrative duplication rather than additive funding. Performance originates from the contractor’s facility in Derby, Kansas, with inspection and acceptance occurring at origin, and delivery terms specified as FOB origin. Packaging and marking must comply strictly with MIL-STD-2073-1E and MIL-STD-129, including cold/dry preservation, unit packaging, and mandatory shelf-life labeling with special external markings for product verification test samples. The contract includes comprehensive cybersecurity and data protection clauses such as DFARS 252.204-7012 and NIST SP 800-171 DOD assessment requirements, alongside compliance with hazardous materials regulations, U.S. maritime cargo preference laws, and DPAS priority ratings. The contractor is represented as a small business, triggering ongoing SAM maintenance and reporting obligations under 52.219-6 and 52.219-28, with deviations applied to multiple clauses including payment reporting and subcontracting. Payment must be submitted electronically via Wide Area WorkFlow, and the Contracting Officer is Joshua Tuggle, with no designated COR identified. All documentation, including safety data sheets and labeling, must meet federal standards, and zero non-conformances are required unless otherwise specified, with the government retaining full authority to inspect, accept, or reject supplies.
