SOW KIM 25058.docx

This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) for engine heat shielding procurement for the United States Coast Guard's CGC Kimball vessel. The SOW specifies the requirement for 6 units of SHIELD AS-TU 232-4446, 6 units of SHIELD AS-TU 232-4447, 12 units of SHIELD 292-4331, and 12 STRAP 232-4449 parts from Caterpillar Inc., to be sourced through Hawthorne Pacific Corp. The parts are to be shipped to CGC Kimball at 400 Sand Island Parkway, Honolulu, HI 96819.

The related federal contract opportunity indicates this is a sole-source procurement under FAR Part 12 and 13 procedures, with Hawthorne CAT as the intended contractor. The procurement is for ship building and repairing (NAICS 336611) and is not designated as a small business opportunity. The United States Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center in Alameda, CA is conducting the procurement, with contact for inquiries being Ms. Oneal via email. The SOW was last updated on 07/18/2024, and interested parties must provide compelling evidence of competitive advantage if challenging the sole-source approach.
