Consumable Repair and Spare Parts for Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) System

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing is soliciting quotes for commercial consumable, repair, and spare parts for a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) System under solicitation number 2031ZA25R00025. The procurement encompasses a comprehensive inventory of technical components including air conditioners, bearings, vacuum valves, sensors, electrical components, circuit breakers, pneumatic valves, flow meters, and control systems from various manufacturers such as SKF, PELCO, Siemens, and Riello. The government intends to award one or more firm-fixed-price contracts with a 90-day delivery requirement after contract award. Evaluation will be conducted using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process, focusing on quotes that meet all solicitation requirements and offer the lowest evaluated price. The current quote submission deadline is July 29, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST, with submissions required via email to erica.hemphill@bep.gov. All parts must be new and not used or refurbished, with pricing provided in Excel format and rounded to the nearest whole cent.

This procurement has undergone significant changes regarding set-aside designations, initially being established as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 333248 (All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing) with a 750-employee size standard, but Amendment 0003 converted it to full and open competition, removing all small business restrictions. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the solicitation documents, though the government reserves the right to make multiple awards or no award depending on proposal quality and fund availability. The parts list is divided between two facilities (DCF and WCF) and includes numerous technical components suggesting a sophisticated manufacturing environment requiring precise equipment maintenance. The contract will include a 90-day price firm period with delivery expected within 90 days of award. Performance will take place in Washington, DC 20228, supporting the Bureau of Engraving and Printing's specialized manufacturing operations.
