Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE5EY20D0555

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Basic Rubber And Plastics CO. of Walled Lake, Michigan, a small business manufacturer, for the supply of various rubber and plastic products such as bumpers, gaskets, seals, and related materials. The $4.9 million single-award IDC is a total small business set-aside with a 5-year period of performance from July 2020 to July 2025. Under this contract, DLA Land and Maritime has issued multiple delivery orders for bumpers to be delivered to Walled Lake, Michigan, ranging in value from $31 to $20,557. The contracted products support the agency's mission to provide logistics and supply chain services for the U.S. military's land, maritime, and aviation operations. While most delivery orders do not utilize set-asides, the IDC itself was awarded to a small business to promote opportunities for this supplier category.

The original solicitation sought offers on a stock basis for 17 pre-priced line items, with the potential to add up to 900 additional items post-award. The procurement was conducted under commercial item procedures, allowing DLA to efficiently source standard components and consumables through an Indefinite Quantity Contract vehicle. This acquisition strategy enables the agency to rapidly fulfill recurring military requirements for rubber and plastic parts and materials through a reliable small business supplier with a track record of successful performance.
