About this file

This is a Statement of Need document for RFQ #1333MK25Q0041, requesting mooring lines for the NOAA Ship Thomas Jefferson. The requirement is for five (5) Cortland Plasma 12 strand mooring lines or equivalent, with specific technical requirements including: 250-foot serviceable length with 72-inch spliced eyes at each end, 1-1/8 inch diameter (28mm), Cordura covered eyes, 8 feet of Velcro chafe protection, 147,000 lbs MTS rating, 0.98 specific gravity, 0.09-0.12 coefficient of friction, towing tags, and preferred purple coloring.

The purpose is to replace deteriorating mooring lines that have been damaged by weather exposure and a faulty capstan, as the current lines are not compatible with ship capstans and bitts due to slipping under load. Delivery is required to the NOAA Thomas Jefferson located at 439 W York St, Norfolk, VA 23510. The document is part of a small business set-aside opportunity under NAICS code 314994 with a 1000-employee size standard, being administered by the Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
