About this opportunity

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division seeks to upgrade its existing cycloconverter drive system through a sole-source contract with GE Energy Power Conversion USA, Inc. The cycloconverter powers an impeller motor for a large cavitation channel. The agency will award a firm-fixed price contract using simplified acquisition procedures. Interested parties may submit capability statements by May 13, 2021 to be considered for award, though the notice does not constitute a competitive solicitation.

There is no set-aside designation. The NAICS code is 541330 Exception 1 with a $41.5 million size standard. As the original equipment manufacturer and only source able to provide the proprietary equipment and knowledge, GE Energy is the potential incumbent for this approximately $500,000 contract. The upgrades are required at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division facility.
