About this opportunity
Portsmouth Naval Shipyard's Contracting Department intends to award a sole-source Firm-Fixed Price contract to Hawthorne Machinery Co (Cage Code 7H278) for diesel generator maintenance, with a response deadline of September 1, 2026. The acquisition is for annual preventative maintenance services on a Caterpillar C15 diesel generator supporting the Portable Freeze Seal Compressed Air System at Naval Regional Maintenance Detachment Point Loma. The justification for sole-source award is based on brand-name considerations under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i); the equipment is mission-critical for reactor safety and requires Caterpillar-qualified maintenance technicians and genuine Caterpillar parts to ensure compatibility and compliance with equipment maintenance manuals. The total cost for Preventative Maintenance Level 2 Annual Service is $3,751.22, covering labor ($2,450.00), parts ($715.00), and includes major preventative maintenance with multi-point inspection, lubrication system service, generator alternator winding insulation testing, and automatic transfer switch service. Although the intent is sole-source, the agency solicits this acquisition on an unrestricted basis and will consider quotations from all responsible sources submitted via email; no formal written solicitation will be issued.
