Blanket Purchase Agreement M6740020A0009

The blanket purchase agreement identifies Takaesu Kohki Co., LTD. as the prime contractor providing vehicle parts and supplies to the United States Marine Corps in Japan. Across ten firm fixed price blanket purchase agreement call contracts ranging in value from $278 to $16,176.51, the Marine Corps procured unspecified vehicle components and maintenance materials from the contractor. All contracts were awarded without a set-aside between September 2020 and December 2020 to support Marine ground transportation equipment and operations in the country. The parts and supplies acquired under the blanket purchase agreement calls aim to maintain readiness of vehicles utilized by the Marine Corps in the Pacific region for tasks including transportation and communications. Performance was to occur at various dates in Japan through the end of 2020 as identified in the provided task orders.

The blanket purchase agreement and subsequent calls establish an efficient acquisition vehicle for the Marine Corps to obtain commercial vehicle parts and logistical support services from the Japan-based contractor on an as-needed basis. The orders allow replacement components and repair materials to be procured locally in a streamlined manner to keep vehicles operational amidst ongoing use for Marine missions.
