Solicitation # SPE7MX-26-R-X074
The contract solicitation SPE7MX-26-R-X074 seeks to procure earphones under NSN 5965-01-056-7225 through an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with a fixed-price structure, set aside entirely for small businesses. The estimated contract value ranges from a minimum of $872.26 to a maximum aggregate of $816,551.82, with order quantities structured in four volume tiers ranging from 244 to 5,844 units, and an additional line item for First Article Testing. Performance is governed by an indefinite delivery schedule, with each order requiring delivery within 330 days of issuance, and f.o.b. origin terms apply. The contract mandates strict compliance with federal cybersecurity standards, including CMMC certification at a level determined by the Contracting Officer, adherence to NIST SP 800-171 for Controlled Unclassified Information, and active maintenance of CMMC status in the Supplier Performance Risk System, including submission of a Plan of Action and Milestones if status is conditional. Packaging, marking, and preservation requirements are detailed exclusively in the referenced "PID, Packaging, and Marking" attachment, which specifies first article labeling requirements in bold red text and mandates compliance with DLA packaging standards and prohibitions on mercury compounds as outlined in NAVSEA 5100-003D. Inspection and acceptance by the Government occur at destination, with responsibilities assigned to the Contracting Officer or DCMA ACO, while the contractor must provide certification of compliance, test data, and documentation such as DI-NDTI-80809B reports. Invoicing is required through the Wide Area Workflow system, with deliveries directed to DLA Maritime’s address in Columbus, Ohio.

Offerors must submit through DIBBS with proposals not exceeding 15 MB, and are required to certify as small businesses, provide accurate UEI and CAGE codes, and disclose any affiliations, delinquent tax liabilities, or connections to restricted entities under FAR and DFARS clauses, with no contract award to entities listed in SAM as non-responsible or suspended.
