Statement of Work Summary

This Statement of Work (SOW) is for the procurement of passive refrigerated pallet shipping systems and compatible refrigerant assemblies for the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS), administered by the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The contractor must furnish 25 new passive refrigerated pallet shipping systems with 600 refrigerated (red) and 600 frozen (blue) gel cassette assemblies to three locations: Mississippi (10 systems), Texas (3 systems), and Utah (12 systems). The systems must maintain internal temperatures between 2°C and 8°C for a minimum of 120 continuous hours under any external conditions using only passive cooling methods (no active refrigeration or dry ice permitted). Each pallet shipping system requires 24 red and 24 blue gel cassette assemblies.

The systems must accommodate standard 48" × 40" pallet loads with minimum interior dimensions of 49" L × 42" W × 45" H (122.6 liters), exterior dimensions of at least 62" L × 54" W × 62" H, assemble in a maximum of 30 minutes, and be suitable for warehouse storage and rapid deployment. All refrigerant assemblies must be new, unused, with a minimum 48-month shelf life upon delivery, and fit securely within manufacturer-designated locations without modification. The contractor must provide thermal qualification reports, summer and winter operating profile validation, quality assurance/quality control procedures, assembly and operating instructions, safe handling and disposal instructions, and manufacturer technical support contact information. All deliveries to SNS locations must comply with specific shipping requirements including packing slips with contract numbers, shelf-life documentation on all packaging, full case quantities, standard pallet configurations with 48" × 40" heat-treated pallets not exceeding 60" height, and scheduled appointments with the designated point of contact. The anticipated period of performance is September 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, with complete shipping addresses to be provided at the time of award by the Contracting Officer's Representative.

STATEMENT OF WORK

Tittle: Pharma Cool Single Chilled Pallet Shipper System

SECTION 1 – BACKGROUND

The Strategic National Stockpile (SNS), Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), maintains deployable inventories of temperature-sensitive Medical Countermeasures (MCMs) that require validated passive cold-chain shipping systems to maintain product integrity during transportation.

Operational Logistics (OL) maintains validated passive cold-chain shipping systems capable of maintaining refrigerated temperatures between 2°C and 8°C during storage, transportation, emergency response operations, and special events. These systems support rapid deployment of MCMs throughout the United States and internationally.

The purpose of this procurement is to acquire passive refrigerated pallet shipping systems and compatible refrigerant assemblies that meet SNS operational, dimensional, and thermal performance requirements while remaining compatible with existing validated packaging and operational procedures where applicable.

SECTION 2 - SCOPE OF WORK

The Contractor shall furnish new passive refrigerated pallet shipping systems including all compatible refrigerant assemblies (gel packs, gel cassettes, or equivalent thermal conditioning media) designed to maintain internal temperatures between 2°C and 8°C during transportation.

Each system shall include all components necessary for operation, including compatible refrigerant assemblies (gel cassettes or equivalent cooling packs), insulation components, assembly hardware, and operating instructions.

The refrigerant assemblies (gel packs, gel cassettes, or equivalent passive cooling media) shall be specifically designed for the proposed pallet shipping system and shall fit securely within the manufacturer's intended locations without modification. The refrigerant assemblies shall support the required internal temperature of 2°C–8°C for a minimum of 120 hours.

The offered system shall be commercially available and capable of meeting the performance requirements identified in this Statement of Work. Where compatibility with existing SNS operational procedures or validated packaging configurations is required, the Contractor shall demonstrate compatibility through manufacturer documentation or equivalent technical data.

SECTION 3 – PERFORMANCE AND REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS

• Maintain an internal temperature range between 2°C-8°C for a minimum of 120 continuous hours under any external temperatures during transit. operating conditions.

• Operate as a completely passive shipping system. Active refrigeration or electrically powered cooling systems are not acceptable

• The use of Dry Ice to maintain temperature requirements is not acceptable.

75A50326Q00024 P00001 Page 2 of 4

• Must be able to support amount of product that fits on standard 48”X40” pallet

• Be suitable for warehouse storage and rapid deployment.

• Require a maximum of 30-minute to assemble for shipment

• Include all refrigerant assemblies required for operation.

• Include assembly and operating instructions.

• Include recommended conditioning procedures for refrigerant assemblies.

• Include safe handling and disposal instructions.

• Include manufacturer technical support contact information.

• Provide at thermal qualification report

• Provide Summer and Winter operating profile validation

• Provide Quality Assurance/Quality Control procedures and verification documentation

• Provide Assembly and Operating instructions

• Manufacturer product specifications to include manufacture date, manufacturer item/model number and manufacture name will be printed on the container in a visible location when the product is stored in warehouse racking.

Refrigerant/Frozen Assemblies (Gel Packs) The Contractor shall provide refrigerant and frozen gel pack assemblies (to ensure the pallet shipping system keeps product at the proper temperature of 2°C-8°C during the cold-chain shipping process) that:

• Are compatible with the proposed pallet shipping system.

• Fit within the manufacturer's designated locations inside the shipping container.

• Require no modifications or custom fabrication by the Government.

• Are new and unused.

• Have a minimum remaining shelf life of forty-eight (48) months upon delivery.

• Be sufficient in quantity to fully outfit each pallet shipping system.

• Be capable of maintaining the required thermal performance when conditioned and used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

• Include conditioning, storage, reuse, and disposal instructions.

Documentation shall demonstrate that the proposed shipping system satisfies the required performance criteria.

3.1 DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Minimum payload capacity:

• Interior volume: 122.6 liters or greater than 2,697 lbs equivalence

• Interior dimensions: 49 in. L × 42 in. W × 45 in. H (minimum)

• Outer Dimensions: At least 62 in. (L) × 54 in. (W) × 62 in. (H) with no dimension exceeding the validated storage or transportation constraints of SNS facilities.
