About this opportunity
The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP), specifically the Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound in support of Military Sealift Command, is procuring OEM Howell Laboratories Inc. START Air Dehydrator components through a sole source requirement on a firm fixed-price supply contract. The procurement includes two line items totaling four units: a Heat Exchanger and Condenser Filter with ABS certification and EMI/vibration testing per MIL-STD-461G and ANSI S2.26 standards, and a Condenser Filter Inlet and Outlet Hose. As a sole source procurement, the government has determined that only Howell Laboratories Inc. can meet the specific technical requirements, eliminating the need for competitive evaluation criteria. The original response deadline of February 2, 2026 was extended to February 11, 2026 via Amendment 0001, and subsequently extended again to February 18, 2026 via Amendment 0002, with all inquiries directed to Contracting Officer Aquaseia Osman at aquaseia.t.osman.civ@us.navy.mil.
This solicitation carries no set-aside designation and is unrestricted, allowing all qualified businesses to compete. The incumbent supplier is Howell Laboratories Inc., the sole source manufacturer for both required components (Part Numbers 9480-G501 and 9484-G501). While specific award values are not disclosed in the available documents, the contract involves the procurement of two units each of the two line items for delivery to Military Sealift Command BATS located at 9284 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, California 92123-5000 on or before August 12, 2026. Successful offerors must maintain current SAM and DBIDS registrations, provide business-sensitive data disclosures as required, and acknowledge receipt of all solicitation amendments prior to the February 18, 2026 deadline to avoid rejection of their offers.
