The procurement is subject to potential Free Trade Agreements, which may be addressed through specific Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) clauses including 252.225-7036 and 252.225-7021. Delivery of the compressors will be FOB Origin, suggesting the contractor will be responsible for initial transportation. While no specific award value is mentioned, the quantity is fixed at two units. The solicitation suggests potential international trade considerations, with provisions for World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and various bilateral Free Trade Agreements potentially influencing the procurement process.
