Elbow 45 degree

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring hydraulic fittings, hoses, and adapters through solicitation N0040625QS204, specifically targeting Parker Hannifin Corp. brand name components. The procurement includes 16 line items featuring 45-degree elbows, hose adapters, fittings, and hoses of various sizes, primarily manufactured from stainless steel (CRES 316) materials. This is a brand name requirement justified by Parker Hannifin Corp.'s exclusive control over the design, characteristics, and production specifications needed for direct replacement of existing equipment. Vendors will be evaluated based on technical acceptability and past performance, with a comparative assessment of price and other factors to determine best value. The original quote deadline was July 16, 2025, at 12:00 PM, though the current solicitation extends the due date to July 17, 2025.

The contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, though the attached documentation indicates it was originally structured as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) procurement under NAICS code 323919 with a size standard of 750 employees. Parker Hannifin Corp. is identified as the sole source supplier due to their proprietary control over the required hydraulic hose assemblies and related components. Contract quantities range from 1 to 150 units per line item, with delivery required by August 1, 2025, to SRF and JRMC Yokosuka, Japan. The procurement follows a firm fixed-price supply contract structure, with shipping arrangements managed through NAVSUP WSS using Free on Board (FOB) origin terms. All participating vendors must maintain current registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for award consideration.
