The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency’s Land and Maritime office, awarded a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $143,000 to U.S.A. SPARES INC. (CAGE 1UF60) under solicitation SPE7MC-24-T-224A, with contract number SPE7MC25P0116 issued on July 15, 2026. The contract covers the procurement of a single line item: a VALVE, GATE (NSN 4810014545284), with no additional quantities, options, or performance metrics specified. The award was made under simplified acquisition procedures per FAR 13.302(a), consistent with the low dollar value and administrative nature of the transaction. The contract incorporates the clause FAR 52.222-90, Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors, using an approved deviation (2026-00040, Revision 1), which requires the contractor to comply with federal diversity, equity, and inclusion obligations and includes administrative fill-ins for the contract number and awardee name. No detailed packaging, inspection, delivery, or acceptance requirements were explicitly defined in the provided documents, though standard DoD traceability identifiers—including NSN, CAGE, and contract number—are present, suggesting alignment with general labeling and procurement practices. The place of performance and delivery location are unspecified, though the contractor’s address is listed as 1729 W Trindle Rd, Carlisle, PA 17015-9743, with payment and administrative functions handled by DLA Land and Maritime in Columbus, OH. The contracting officer is Michael Finken, but no COR or COTR is identified. Payment and invoicing mechanisms are not detailed, though electronic processing via DIBBS is implied. The contractor’s size status and socioeconomic certifications are not confirmed, and no security, OCI, or key personnel requirements are cited. The contract includes no option clauses or extended performance periods, with deliveries governed by an As Required or As Ordered (ARO) basis, leaving timing and sequence to future issuance. All administrative documentation references STANDARD FORM 30 (REV. 11/2016), and no explicit attachments or evaluation factors are included, indicating a streamlined, low-complexity acquisition under simplified procedures without competitive trade-off evaluation.
