About this file
This document is a Justification for Sole Source procurement for the Defense Logistics Agency Maritime Puget Sound (DLA Maritime). The solicitation seeks 65 inflatable bladders and covers from COB Industries, a sole source manufacturer, specifically for use at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (PSNS). The items are natural rubber bladders with canvas covers, featuring a 25" rubber neck, Schrader valve, and specific cure date and size markings, designed as FME (Foreign Material Exclusion) barrier plugs.
The related federal contract opportunity (Solicitation Number SPMYM225Q2298) is a 100% small business set-aside using commercial and simplified acquisition procedures. The contract will be a firm fixed-price supply contract for FOB Destination delivery to Bremerton, WA. Interested firms must complete pricing, representations and certifications, provide manufacturer information, return the full solicitation package, and be registered in SAM.gov. The procurement is specifically for inflatable plugs that are currently in use at PSNS in multiple sizes, with waterfront personnel already familiar with the product and no substitutions allowed.
