Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE60126D1511

Linde Korea Co., LTD Sales Division has been awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy with a ceiling value of $1.8 million and a period of performance extending from April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2031. This contract vehicle, issued without set-aside designations, authorizes the delivery of critical aerospace energy products including Liquid Nitrogen and Aviator's Breathing Oxygen to designated locations across the Department of Defense enterprise. The contractor is responsible for providing all necessary products, materials, supplies, management, tools, equipment, transportation, and labor for delivery of these gases to government-owned or contractor-owned tanks on a free-on-board destination basis. Performance occurs primarily in South Korea, where Linde Korea maintains its operational base, though deliveries support military installations throughout the Pacific Area of Responsibility and potentially extended geographic regions including the Middle East.

This Indefinite Delivery Contract represents a continuation and expansion of Linde Korea's existing supply relationship with DLA Energy, building upon the company's demonstrated performance under a prior five-year IDIQ contract awarded in December 2021 with a ceiling of approximately $938,000. The originating pre-solicitation opportunity, released in September 2024 under solicitation number SPE60125R03XX, sought capability statements for the delivery of Liquid Nitrogen and Aviator's Breathing Oxygen at various Middle East locations, indicating the government's intent to establish or expand supply chains in that region. All delivery orders issued under this contract are structured as firm fixed-price arrangements with no minority or small business set-asides, reflecting Linde Korea's status as an unrestricted commercial contractor. The contractor must comply with all product specifications, perform required sampling and testing, and permit government quality assurance inspections as part of its performance obligations under this procurement vehicle.
