The contract encompasses various quantities of components including four production units of NGL Buffer Assemblies and Buffer Accumulators, along with multiple units requiring First Article Testing for Buffer Valve Manifolds, Charging Panels, and Tensioner Controls. The total quantities include both first article test units and production units across the different part numbers, though no specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice.
