Things to watch
From the version posted Oct 15, 2026.
- Worth checking: No Government drawings or specifications. The notice gives only the part number and a short description, so a business must already know how to make or supply this exact part.
- Minor: Quantity is an estimate. The Government's best estimate is 83 each but the range is wide, so the real order could be much smaller or larger.
- Minor: Contract period and delivery dates differ. The contract period is stated as 1 year, but the delivery schedule runs from June 3, 2027 through October 3, 2028.
