THUMBSCREW

The contract specifies the procurement of a commercial item identified as a THUMBSCREW with NSN 5305014839192, governed by simplified acquisition procedures under FAR Part 12 and aligned with DLA-specific packaging, marking, and quality requirements. The item must be delivered in quantities totaling seven units across multiple CLINs, each with a fixed delivery timeline of 20 days and FOB Origin terms, with inspection and acceptance occurring at the destination. Packaging must strictly comply with MIL-STD-2073-1E using QUP:001, Clean/Dry preservation method (31), and a Metal Open Top Box container with no padding or wrapping materials required. Marking follows MIL-STD-129 with zero special markings, requiring a Transaction Control Number (TCN) to be printed and encoded in a 2D Data Matrix barcode for traceability. Palletization adheres to DLA’s RP001 requirements, and shipments must use traceable transportation methods, explicitly prohibiting Parcel Post. The items are classified as commercial of a type, triggering FAR Part 12 compliance, including streamlined inspection protocols and acceptance criteria based on MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331 Table 1 with a zero-defect acceptance standard for sampled lots. Attributes are assigned verification levels VII, IV, II or AQLs of 0.1, 1.0, and 4.0 respectively depending on criticality, and any unspecified attributes are treated as Major. Technical and quality requirements from the DLA Master List, designated by R or I numbers, are fully incorporated by reference, with RD003 indicating potential handling of Covered Defense Information, necessitating compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and DFARS 252.204-7012 for cybersecurity safeguards. RQ011 mandates removal of government identification from non-accepted supplies, while RQ017 requires direct, permanent physical marking on the bare item. Delivery addresses are specified by military unit and installation codes across multiple locations including Fort Bragg, Camp Lejeune, Salem, and Clemson, with all shipments directed to designated Military Freight (M/F) points. The contract includes standard FAR and DFARS clauses covering small business representation, equal opportunity, trafficking in persons, employment eligibility, hazardous materials, export control, and electronic invoicing via WAWF.
