This firm-fixed-price purchase order valued at $229,900.00 was awarded by the Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) to The Oilgear Company, a manufacturer of fluid power and hydraulic equipment, for the repair of a check valve. The award was made without any set-aside designation, indicating The Oilgear Company's ability to compete for federal contracts on a full and open basis.
The original solicitation indicates that the government did not own the data or rights to the data needed to purchase or contract the repair of this part from additional sources, and it was deemed uneconomical to obtain the data or rights or to reverse engineer the part. The solicitation invited interested parties to submit proposals, though the government reserved the right to negotiate with only one source.
Through this contract, The Oilgear Company, a long-standing supplier to various U.S. defense agencies, will provide the necessary repair services for this specialized check valve component, supporting the maintenance and upgrade of essential hydraulic systems used in military and infrastructure applications.
