TERMINAL BOARD

This contract, identified by solicitation number SPE4A7-26-T-680Z, is for the procurement of Terminal Boards under National Stock Number 5940-12-383-5271. The requirement is divided into two primary line items: one for 4 units to be delivered to the USNS Sojourner Truth in San Diego, CA, and another for 16 units to be delivered to the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, VA. Both items are designated as critical application items, specifically referencing Phoenix Contact GmbH Co. KG part numbers. The contract mandates a rapid delivery turnaround of 5 days and specifies that all shipments must be sent via the fastest traceable means, explicitly prohibiting the use of parcel post. Strict technical and quality compliance is required, including adherence to DLA packaging requirements and MIL-STD-129 for marking. A significant safety provision prohibits the intentional addition of mercury or mercury-containing compounds to any hardware or supplies provided under this contract, with very limited functional exceptions. Quality assurance is governed by specific sampling methods such as MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331, with defined verification levels for critical, major, and minor attributes. Additionally, all packaging and preservation must comply with MIL-STD-2073-1E and ensure that no mercury is used in the preservation or marking processes.
