About this opportunity

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has published a Special Notice for a noncompetitive award of a purchase order for Flow-Induced Vibration (FIV) Review and Guidance. The NRC is currently reviewing the NuScale Small Modular Reactor Standard Design Approval Application and requires technical assistance to complete the review of the dynamic analysis and testing of the NuScale power module.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to notify the public of the NRC's intent to noncompetitively award a purchase order to Hambric Stephen, the only known source that can provide the required technical assistance to the NRC. The anticipated period of performance for the purchase order is from December 15, 2024 to December 31, 2027. The authority permitting this noncompetitive award is FAR 13.106-1(b), as the estimated value of the acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold and there is only one source that can effectively assist the NRC in completing the NuScale SMR review.
