The Defense Logistics Agency awarded Leslie Controls, Inc. a single-item contract for a safety relief valve (NSN 4820012640575) with a total value of $22,756.00, issued under solicitation SPE7M1-22-T-669M and awarded on July 13, 2026, through contract number SPE7M426P0924, modified via P00001. The award is a firm-fixed-price transaction for one line item with no options or additional quantities specified, and while the exact delivery schedule and FOB terms are not stated, the contractor is located in Tampa, Florida, and administrative functions are managed by DLA Land and Maritime in Columbus, Ohio. The contracting officer is Micheal Finken, with no designated COR or COTR identified, and payment and invoice processing are handled through the DLA Land and Maritime office, though no specific invoicing system is named. A unique contractual requirement is the incorporation of FAR 52.222-90, addressing DEI discrimination by federal contractors, added via deviation 2026-00040, Revision 1, which imposes compliance obligations related to employment practices. The awardee holds a CAGE code of 35795, but its size status and socioeconomic certifications are not affirmatively represented, and no other socio-economic designations, security clearance mandates, key personnel requirements, or organizational conflict of interest clauses are included. Packaging, inspection criteria, quality standards, and labeling requirements are not specified in the documentation, and while delivery is implied to originate from the vendor’s Tampa location, the exact place of performance and acceptance point remain undefined. The contract was awarded without a public evaluation factor disclosure, and no formal section J attachments, evaluation factors, or detailed performance specifications were provided, leaving the basis of award and technical requirements minimal in detail beyond the NSN and total price.
