The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) is seeking quotes for specific brand name box hub couplings, stuffing tube swivels, standard box hub fittings, and EMP conduits to support Ship Repair Facility-Joint Regional Maintenance Center (SRF-JRMC) in Yokosuka, Japan. The solicitation (N0040625Q0264) requires these specialized materials to be manufactured from CRES 316L with passivated finish and include specific design requirements like gray EPDM outer jackets for conduits. All items must be manufactured by ICORE International Inc., which controls the proprietary engineering drawings and specifications. Quotes are due by 10:00 AM on February 7, 2025, with questions required to be submitted one day prior to the closing date. The contracting officer for this solicitation is Zoe Roberts, who will oversee the procurement process.

This procurement is a 100% small business set-aside with an anticipated firm-fixed-price supply contract for 16 specific line items. The contract will utilize FOB Origin shipping via WSS Shipping, and all items will be awarded to a single contractor due to the interrelated nature of the supplies. ICORE International Inc. is the primary manufacturer, with market research confirming no alternative suppliers can provide compatible components. The materials are specifically needed for upcoming maintenance availabilities on multiple ships, with inspection and acceptance to be performed by the government at destination. The contract encompasses various quantities of specialized electrical and mechanical components, primarily supporting naval repair and maintenance operations in the Yokosuka region of Japan, with a specific focus on precise engineering specifications and compatibility with existing naval equipment.
