Breathing Air Compressor System Replacement

The Naval Supply Systems Command seeks purchase, delivery, and installation of three brand-name Bauer Mini Unicus Breathing Air Compressor Systems (Model MINI-UNI/13-E3), with proposals due August 20 and questions due August 14, 2026. The procurement is a Women-Owned Small Business set-aside with 100% small business requirement, but carries a brand-name sole-source justification under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(ii) and 41 U.S.C. 1903 based on standardization, compatibility with existing regional equipment and proprietary purification cartridges, and urgent lifecycle failure of incumbent systems.

Delivery locations are three separate California naval installations: NAS Lemoore F&ES Station 62 (Lemoore, CA), NAWC China Lake F&ES Station 21 (China Lake, CA), and NB San Diego F&ES Station 15 (San Diego, CA), with one unit per location. Each system must be delivered, installed, and tested within 90–120 days of contract award. Systems are configured with 13 SCFM charging rate, 10-horsepower three-phase motor (208–230/440 VAC), Bauer P2S purification system with B-SECURUS electronic moisture monitoring, two integrated ASME storage cylinders, and two-position containment fill station. Contractor must disconnect and decommission existing compressor units at each site for Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office disposal.

Compliance is required with NFPA 1989 (breathing air quality), NFPA 1500 Chapter 7.11 (occupational safety), OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 (respiratory protection), and DoDI 6055.06 (DoD fire services). Award will be made to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror on firm-fixed-price terms. Offers must be submitted through Unison Global. The NAICS code is 333912, Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing; PSC code is 4210, Fire Fighting Equipment. Payment is net 30 days via Electronic Funds Transfer following invoice submission through iRAPT with inspection and acceptance documentation.
