The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime has awarded a series of firm-fixed-price delivery order contracts to Jo-Kell Inc., a woman-owned small business, for the procurement of circuit breakers. Under these delivery orders, Jo-Kell Inc. will provide a variety of circuit breaker models to support the DLA's mission of providing logistics support to the U.S. military. The total potential value of the delivery orders summarized is $486,834.12, with performance to be completed at Jo-Kell's facility in Chesapeake, Virginia. These awards were issued against an existing Indefinite Delivery Contract held by Jo-Kell Inc. and did not utilize any set-aside designations. Jo-Kell Inc. has an extensive history of providing electrical components and distribution services to the DLA, Department of the Navy, and other government agencies through both competitive and small business set-aside contracts.
The original solicitation from the DLA Land and Maritime sought offers for circuit breakers across three different National Stock Numbers. The solicitation was posted as a pre-solicitation notice, indicating it would be competed on a full and open basis without any set-asides. The estimated annual demand quantities ranged from 8 to 366 units per item. Delivery schedules varied from 26 to 68 days after award. Qualification requirements specified that the offered circuit breakers must be on a Qualified Products List. The solicitation allowed for a potential contract term of up to 5 years, including base and option periods, to support the DLA's ongoing requirements for these critical electrical components.
