TRANSFORMER, POWER

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Abbott Technologies, Inc. a firm fixed-price contract for the procurement of a single power transformer, identified by NSN 6120-01-624-7213, at a total price of $7,665.00. The contract, issued under solicitation SPE7M1-26-T-7109 and awarded on July 15, 2026, requires delivery FOB origin by December 30, 2026, to the designated government facility in Tracy, California. The contractor must comply with stringent military packaging and marking standards, including MIL-STD-2073-1 for preservation, packaging design, and data specification, and MIL-STD-129 for labeling, barcoding, and external markings, which require explicit identification of the contract number, lot number, and the statement “Product Verification Test Samples Do Not Post to Stock.” Package failure during transit necessitates at-no-cost redesign per ASTM D4169, Cycle 18. The transformation must be accompanied by technical compliance documentation and must not alter the production facility without prior written approval from the Contracting Officer, which requires demonstration of at least $250.00 in cost savings. The contractor, certified as a Woman-Owned Small Business and a small business under FAR Part 19, is subject to additional reporting obligations under the WOSB Federal Contract Program and cybersecurity requirements tied to CMMC Level 2, DFARS 252.204-7016, and prohibitions on ByteDance-covered applications. Invoicing is mandated exclusively through the Wide Area WorkFlow system using electronic submissions, with payment administered by DFAS using payment code SL4701. The contract includes clauses on veteran employment reporting and sustainable products under deviations 2026-O0038, and subcontractor management under deviation 2026-O0015, but no formal evaluation factors, contracting officer representative, or certificate of conformity are listed in the documentation. The contract contains no options, quantity variances, or modification history, and is structured as a single-line, firm fixed-price deliverable with full acceptance to be conducted by the Government at the destination.
