TUBE ASSEMBLY, METAL

RTX CORPORATION, identified by CAGE code 52661, has been awarded a contract modification numbered SPE4A126F0441 under the base contract SPE4A121G0001, originating from solicitation SPE4A1-26-T-0320, for the procurement of a metal tube assembly with NSN 4710013176082 at a total value of $153,780.96. The award was issued on July 21, 2026, with performance expected at the contractor’s facility located at 400 Main Street, East Hartford, Connecticut. The contract is administered by the Defense Logistics Agency’s Aviation, ASC Commodities Division in Richmond, Virginia, with the Defense Contract Management Agency’s APO Pratt and Whitney EH office serving as the administrative handler. Although the contract does not specify delivery timelines, quantities, or unit pricing, it mandates full performance within the United States and is governed by a unique provision—FAR 52.222-90—which implements DoD Class Deviation 2026-00040 to prohibit federal contractors from engaging in or promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives that involve discrimination based on race, ethnicity, or sex in hiring, promotions, or subcontracting. This clause is mandatory for flow-down to all subcontracts unless performed entirely outside the U.S., and obligates the contractor to report violations by subcontractors and notify the Contracting Officer of any legal challenges to the clause. The contracting officer is Dean Allen, and while no Contracting Officer’s Representative or Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative is named, the government retains oversight authority. No detailed inspection, acceptance, packaging, or marking requirements are included in the available documentation, nor are specific invoicing methods, payment offices, accounting codes, or evaluation factors disclosed. The contract uses Standard Form 30 as its modification vehicle and references a continuation sheet, though its contents are not accessible. The contractor’s size status and socioeconomic certifications remain unspecified, and no option quantities or extended delivery terms are indicated. The total price reflects a single line item with no identified ceiling or IDIQ structure, and all compliance obligations are tied directly to the DEI non-discrimination clause as material to payment under federal statute.
