The procurement is restricted to Original Equipment Manufacturer ROXUL INC. (doing business as ROCKWOOL) or their authorized distributors, with interested distributors required to submit proper authorization documentation from the OEM along with their quotes. Questions regarding this opportunity must be directed via email to WILFREDO.J.GERVACIO.CIV@US.NAVY.MIL. The acquisition will result in a firm-fixed price supply contract, with the full solicitation expected to be posted on SAM.gov on approximately August 6, 2025. Quotes are due by August 14, 2025, and prospective offerors are responsible for monitoring the website for any amendments and downloading the solicitation documents independently.
This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside, limiting participation to qualifying small businesses that meet the requirements as ROCKWOOL authorized distributors. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 327993 for Mineral Wool Manufacturing and PSC code 5640 for Wallboard, Building Paper, and Thermal Insulation Materials. ROXUL INC./ROCKWOOL serves as the specified OEM for this brand name acquisition, indicating they are likely the current or preferred supplier for these thermal insulation materials. The pre-solicitation notice does not specify contract values, quantities, or detailed delivery timelines, as these details will presumably be included in the full solicitation document when it becomes available. The brief timeframe between the anticipated solicitation posting date and the quote due date suggests this may be a relatively straightforward supply requirement with established specifications.
