Transmitter, Tempera

This contract solicitation, identified as SPRTA1-26-R-0217 and issued by the Department of Defense through DLA Weapons Support at Oklahoma City, pertains to the procurement of 26 units (base quantity) of a transmitter, model Tempera (NSN: 6685-01-560-2953). The solicitation, posted on April 9, 2026, with submissions due by May 21, 2026, follows a sealed bid, firm-fixed-price (FFP) format under NAICS code 336412, covering Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing. The contract requires compliance with extensive regulatory and acquisition clauses including Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses addressing equal opportunity, child labor, small business subcontracting plans, Buy American and trade agreement certificates, and security representations. Notably, the contract mandates Item Unique Identification (IUID) in accordance with MIL-STD-130, requiring Data Matrix barcode marking, with special handling for Critical Safety Items, which must be bag/tag marked instead of direct part marking. Packaging and preservation requirements include corrective actions for nonconforming packaging, allowing government correction costs up to $1,000, but do not specify detailed preservation methods. Evaluation of proposals will prioritize the technical acceptability of offers and small business participation plans as prerequisites. Following that, cost/price and past performance factors will be weighed roughly equally to determine best value, allowing for trade-offs where a higher price may be justified by superior past performance. Proposals lacking acceptable ratings in technical or small business participation factors will be disqualified. Inspection and acceptance of supplies occur at the contractor's facility (origin), with delivery FOB origin to the DLA Distribution Depot at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. Despite the absence of a formal statement of work in Section C, the contract’s scope and deliverables are managed via detailed line items and associated specifications in Sections B, E, and F. Administrative and invoicing processes utilize the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system, and all required representations and certifications address compliance with federal acquisition laws and socioeconomic classifications. No special contract requirements or unique security provisions are identified, and proposals must be submitted clearly and concisely without mandatory volume or page restrictions, via email or mail as detailed in the solicitation.
