SHIPPING AND STORAG
This is a manufacturing contract for aluminum containers according to a specific drawing package, requiring strict welding, cleaning, and quality assurance procedures. A First Article Test is mandatory for new manufacturers, with the government's testing cost estimated at $10,000 added to the offeror's price, and the contractor bears all costs for shipping test samples. The performance location involves coordination with Naval Inventory Control Point (NAVICP) in Philadelphia for serial number assignment and test site details. The contract includes numerous standard federal clauses covering areas like small business set-asides and security prohibitions. Production requires 100% leak testing, and the contractor is solely responsible for providing all necessary manufacturing equipment and tooling.
