Contactor

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is procuring one General Electric magnetic contactor, specifically a 3-pole, NEMA 6, 480VAC, 120V coil contactor with auxiliary contacts (part number CR305H002). This procurement supports NAVFAC Pacific at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and IMF as part of an approved crane alteration request that requires standardization with existing Westmont crane designs. The solicitation requires offerors to submit their quotes via email to the contracting officer no later than August 8, 2025, at 11:00 AM HST, with all questions also submitted electronically to the same contact. The contract will be awarded using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) criteria, with evaluation factors including technical capability, estimated time of delivery (ETD), and price. Offers must be submitted on Standard Form 1449 or include a statement of agreement with all solicitation terms and conditions, and failure to provide required representations may result in exclusion from consideration.

This opportunity is set aside exclusively for small businesses under the Total Small Business set-aside program, with the contract to be awarded to the qualifying small business submitting the lowest priced technically acceptable offer. The brand name justification document indicates a previously quoted price of $16,363.72 from Gexpro, which includes the GE direct item cost of $15,659.06 plus sales tax of $704.66, though this represents a reference price rather than the contract value. The procurement involves a single unit delivery requirement to DLA Distribution at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, with delivery required by August 30, 2025. The solicitation was issued on August 5, 2025, providing only a three-day response window for interested small business contractors. The procurement falls under NAICS code 335312 for Motor and Generator Manufacturing and PSC code 6110 for Electrical Control Equipment, reflecting the specialized nature of the electrical contactor being acquired.
