The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a $1.5 million firm fixed price contract to Taylor Devices Inc. of North Tonawanda, New York. The contract is for the refurbishment of 60 vibration isolation mounts to original specifications over a performance period of February 2022 to February 2023.
The original solicitation sought quotes to restore 120 mounts on a Navy submarine through disassembly, inspection, manufacturing of new parts as required, testing, and refurbishment. As the original equipment manufacturer and sole owner of proprietary data for the mounts, Taylor Devices was determined to be the only source capable of performing the specialized restoration work. The justification and approval document indicated that a sources sought notice received two responses but neither could perform without the proprietary drawings. The contract is funded by FY22 Navy operations and maintenance funds.
