Notice text

As posted on SAM.gov.

CLIN 0001 - E. H. WACHS CUSTOM OMEGA SEAL CUTTING MACHINE, E. H. WACHS REF. NO. 24-034-5000-00, CUTTING MACHINE SHALL MEET THE SPECIFICATIONS OF ATTACHMENT A.

CLIN 0002 - E. H. WACHS CUTTING WHEEL, CHIPLESS, E.H. WACHS REF. NO. 24-034-0700-00, IAW ATTACHMENT B.

This requirement will be solicited as Unrestricted, and will be sole sourced to E. H. Wachs, or its authorized distributor, in accordance with FAR Part 13.5 – Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items.  No other manufacturer will be considered.  Authorized Distributor letters/certificate will be required.

E. H. Wachs is able and ready to provide the mentioned custom equipment to meet the 1/31/2025 required delivery date, which allows the government to receive the equipment, test and develop work practices and develop TWDs for the operation; perform training of cutting operation to qualify production personnel; and to identify any adjustments necessary in time for training and shipboard operations. In addition, the years of experience that E. H. Wachs has working with the NNPP (specifically Reactor Servicing) allows fast and accurate communication of specifications and needs that no other cutting equipment provider can provide.  Another important factor is the familiarity that refueling mechanics have with regards to the custom arrangement being procured. A similar cutting arrangement was procured for Reactor Servicing work on other conversion projects. This similarity (or familiarity) will reduce the amount of time required to train and get production personnel acquainted with the equipment.
