About this opportunity

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Office of Acquisition Services seeks repair of a NIOSH-owned Bauer breathing air compressor to restore full operational capacity for congressionally mandated respirator approval and audit testing, with quotations due May 26, 2026. This is a total small business set-aside.

Place of performance is the CDC/NIOSH Bruceton Campus in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (Building 40, 626 Cochrans Mill Road, West Mifflin, PA 15236). The compressor, model VTC-7K/20 serial number 233012, is critical for approval and audit testing of CBRN, SCBA, and Firefighting respirators and currently is the only NIOSH-owned unit capable of producing 7000 psi. Repair scope includes replacement of the 83493-EU Filter Chamber 550BAR, 083544 SEP Oil/Water Coalesc 550BAR, and N17066-517 Safety Valve 517BAR, plus all associated service labor.

All vendor travel costs to the NIOSH location are included in contract price. The contract is limited to the original manufacturer's authorized service vendor for this equipment. The pricing structure is firm fixed-price across six line items: Service Call Fee, Filter Chamber, SEP Oil Water, Safety Valve, Service Fleet Supplies, and Fuel Surcharge. The NAICS code is 333912, Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing; PSC is 4310, Compressors and Vacuum Pumps. Quotations should be submitted to Paula Taylor at VGA8@CDC.gov.

Notice text

The National Personal Protective Technology Laboratory (NPPTL), National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducts respirator approval testing. This includes approval and audit testing for CBRN, SCBA, and Firefighting respirators. These respirators, in various configurations, require a source of high pressure breathable air for approval and audit testing. Additionally, these respirators undergo human participant testing, and the compressed air must be of sufficient quality to meet all applicable human safety requirements. Currently, the only NIOSH owned breathing air compressor that is capable of producing 7000 psi is broken and requires parts and repairs. Until this air compressor is repaired, there is a significant risk that some tests and respirator approvals in the congressionally mandated respirator approval program may not be possible. The parts and repairs described in this procurement action are required to perform NIOSH respirator approval and audit testing.

SECTION 2 – PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this contract is to make repairs to the NIOSH owned Bauer breathing air compressor with m/n VTC-7K/20 and s/n 233012 and return it to full and normal operation.

SECTION 3 – SCOPE OF WORK

The scope is limited to the parts and labor required to bring the NIOSH owned Bauer breathing air compressor with m/n VTC-7K/20 and s/n 233012 back to full and normal operation. The air compressor is located in B40 on the NIOSH Pittsburgh campus.
