About this opportunity

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Marshall Space Flight Center published a Special Notice for the procurement of American Society of Mechanical Engineers Code tube pressure vessels. The Notice provides details regarding NASA's intent to issue a sole source contract to FIBA Technologies, Inc. for the acquisition of 18 ASME Code tube pressure vessels with a maximum individual volume of approximately 60 cubic feet each, configured in assemblies of 6 vessels for a total of 3 assemblies.

The vessels will replace aging pressure vessels used to support ongoing test operations at MSFC. Interested parties may submit capabilities by February 7, 2024 to Stephanie Darnell, Contract Specialist via email, to determine whether to conduct a full and open competition or sole source award. Eligible contractors must demonstrate their ability to provide vessels matching the design of those previously purchased from FIBA Technologies in 2017. If upon review of submissions NASA decides not to compete the procurement, it will issue a sole source award based on the unique design requirements.

Notice text

NASA/MSFC has a requirement for American Society of Mechanical Engineers Code Tube pressure vessels with an individual maximum volume of approximately 60 cubic feet (water volume) in a stacked set of 6 configuration to be delivered to MSFC where they will be unloaded by onsite personnel.

NASA/MSFC intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the ASME Code Tube pressure vessels with a total individual maximum volume of approximately 60 cubic feet from FIBA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.  These vessels are configured in 6-pack design with a combined total water volume of approximately 350 cubic feet.  NASA intends to purchase three  of these 6-pack configurations on this procurement. The foundations were built based on the drawings of the vessels that were installed in 2017 purchased by FIBA Technologies. The additional vessels must match the vessels purchased in 2017. This decision is made pursuant to FAR subpart  13.5(a)(1)(ii)  in accordance with 41 U.S.C.1901.  The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.
