About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps, through MCI-West RCO, is conducting market research on the feasibility of supplying 54 backflow prevention devices with responses due by September 1, 2026. This is a Total Small Business set-aside RFI for research purposes only and does not constitute a binding obligation; a formal RFQ will follow based on responses received.
The bill of materials specifies backflow preventers in sizes ranging from 1/2 inch to 6 inches from manufacturers including Wilkins, Apollo, Febco, and Watts, with quantities per model ranging from one to nine units. Specification sheets detail reduced pressure principle assemblies, double check valves, and vacuum breakers rated for maximum working pressures of 150–175 PSI and temperatures of 140–180 degrees Fahrenheit, complying with ASSE, UPC, CSA, AWWA, and NSF standards. Materials include bronze or ductile iron bodies with stainless steel internals and FDA-approved elastomers; several models are lead-free certified and meet NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 drinking water requirements.
Respondents must provide estimated costs assuming a 60-day lead time after award or faster delivery capability, and may submit industry questions to streamline the procurement process. Vendors should reference the attached Excel bill of materials and specification sheets when responding. Place of performance is not specified in the source material.
