About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command Norfolk intends to award a sole source contract to The Sherwin-Williams Company for underwater hull coating materials to support the USNS Millinocket. The goods procured will include various primers, sealants and solvents from Sherwin-Williams' coating system totaling over 1,000 gallons. A comparative evaluation in 2015 found Sherwin-Williams' system superior after three years when tested against another system on the vessel. The notice is not a request for competitive quotes due to Sherwin-Williams being the original equipment manufacturer and authorized provider under the contract's authority.
There is no set-aside designation for this pre-solicitation notice. The Sherwin-Williams Company is identified as the only potential incumbent given their role as the authorized manufacturer and distributor of the required paint system. Over 1,000 gallons of various coating materials will be procured from Sherwin-Williams for application to the entire underwater hull of the USNS Millinocket. Periodic market surveys will continue to ensure the best product is being used for environmental protection and fiduciary responsibilities.
