SOLE SOURCE - OEM GEA MECHANICAL PUMP & PARTS (Updated 01/06/2025)

NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound is seeking to procure specific GEA Mechanical pump and parts for the Military Sealift Command (MSC), including 4 centripetal pumps, 5 screw spindles, 4 meters of hose, and 2 centripetal pump chamber covers. Originally designated as a 100% small business set-aside, the solicitation has been amended to an unrestricted sole-source procurement directly to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) due to CSI requirements and lack of authorized distributors. The evaluation will primarily be based on price, with past performance considered if low-price quotes do not represent best value. Potential vendors must be registered in SAM and provide 48-hour advance delivery notification. The solicitation requires unique item identification marking and electronic invoicing through Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). Proposals are due by January 9, 2025, at 11:59 PM PST, with questions allowed up to one day before the closing date.

The contract is classified under NAICS category 333995 for Fluid Power Cylinder and Actuator Manufacturing and PSC category 4320 for Power and Hand Pumps. Delivery of the specified equipment is required by May 28, 2025, to the MSC SSU BATS facility in San Diego, California. While a specific award value is not detailed in the documentation, the procurement is for a firm-fixed-price supply contract. The solicitation introduces new requirements regarding prohibited unmanned aircraft systems from American Security Drone Act-covered foreign entities. Contractors must be prepared to meet strict documentation and compliance standards, including providing authorized distributor documentation with their quotes. The place of performance is within the United States, specifically targeting the Military Sealift Command's San Diego location.
