About this file

This is a Justification for Sole Source Procurement under FAR 13.106-1(b) for a contract valued between $15,000 and $350,000.

The Government seeks to procure 750 pounds of ZEOCHEM nitrogen loading desiccant (SIEVE, NITROGEN ABSORPTION) through the sole source manufacturer ZEOCHEM LLC, located at 1360 S. 12th Street, Louisville, KY 40210, contact 800-424-9300. The material will be obtained through the authorized dealer Pacific Consolidated Industries (PCI), CAGE 75906, located at 12201 Magnolia Avenue, Riverside, CA 92503, with point of contact Fiorella Sinnema at (951) 289-5229 or fsinnema@pcigases.com. The part number is PCI GASES P/N 582416-004 with a required delivery date of November 11, 2026 (110 days after award). The desiccant is a direct replacement component for the VSA Chamber Assembly Part Number 795844-001, which is used exclusively in the VSA Module – 300 LPM GOX System Part Number 795562-001. The justification cites proprietary design specifications, patent holdings, and exclusive OEM technology as the basis for sole source restriction, emphasizing that any change in form, fit, or function would result in total system failure. The procurement is restricted to this single source due to compatibility requirements with existing naval systems and the inability to substitute or repair through alternative sources. The contracting officer signature is dated October 22, 2026, and the document was processed by DLA Weapons Support Puget Sound.
