The procurement is for a $1P6000 white-head table with wheel, drain and faucet, specifically a Machine Frame with Painted Steel construction, SSTL panels, forklift pockets rated at 750 lbs, Power lift mechanism with pneumatic agitation platform, and semi-automated tank lid with controls enclosure including wiring, programming, and power distribution.

The required delivery date is July 15, 2026. The justification for sole source procurement cites that failure to procure this specific unit will result in inability to properly process 600-pound components, leading to mission delays. The brand is compatible with existing maintenance contracts with 3IM, aligned with current Industrial Plant Equipment (IPE) preventive maintenance schedules, and represents direct replacement parts for existing equipment, eliminating extensive retraining and duplicative administrative costs. The procurement is controlled by DLA Weapons Support, categorized as PROCURE/SSEL, and marked FED ONLY for limited distribution. The contracting officer is BALDWIN, DIANA T., with approval authority from BROWN, ZACHARY at DLA Weapons Support Puget Sound.
