The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a firm-fixed price purchase order to RIX Industries, a for-profit manufacturer and Subchapter S corporation, for the maintenance and repair of LPAC (Low Pressure Air Compressor) systems. The contract, valued at $256,910.32, requires RIX to provide compressor air end replacement and 5,000-hour maintenance services for STAR 200 LPAC equipment at a location in Japan. This award was issued on an other than full and open competition basis, as RIX Industries and Curtiss-Wright are the only qualified activities recognized by the Navy to manufacture, evaluate, repair, and overhaul the STAR 200 LPAC systems. The contract does not have a set-aside designation and was awarded on September 3, 2018, with a completion date of December 4, 2018.
