Converter Compressor Facility Spare Parts

NASA Shared Services Center is soliciting spare parts for the Converter Compressor Facility (CCF) at Kennedy Space Center as part of the Construction of Facilities Project involving modifications to the K7-0468 facility, which includes new helium and nitrogen systems with a six liquid helium pump system. The procurement specifically requires three Norman filters and filter elements critical for maintaining operational readiness of the facility's helium and nitrogen pipelines: one 1.5" NFC T-type line filter (Part No. U-91434), one 1.0" NFC T-type line filter (Part No. U-91435), and four 4900 Series filter elements (Part No. 549G-10DM). These components must be exact, like-for-like replacements without additional design engineering to ensure system compatibility and support real-time operations for spaceport users' launch and test activities. The evaluation will use a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) approach, and all contractual and technical questions must be submitted in writing by July 25, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. CT. Quotes are due by July 28, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. CT to Kacey Hickman via email.

This solicitation is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance).
