This is a $149,784.00 firm fixed-price purchase order contract awarded by the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command to Portland Valve LLC, a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of goods based in Warren, Massachusetts. The contract is for the delivery of butterfly valves, with a completion date of May 29, 2019. This contract was not set aside for a specific business type.
The original federal contract opportunity was a pre-solicitation notice indicating the Government's intent to sole-source this requirement to Portland Valve LLC as the approved source of supply, due to the Government not owning the technical data rights needed to purchase the valves from additional sources. The notice allowed 45 days for any capable sources to identify their interest and capability, but a competitive procurement was not conducted. Portland Valve LLC has received numerous prior federal contract awards to provide various types of valves, actuators, and related equipment to the Department of Defense, including the Department of the Navy and the Defense Logistics Agency.
