About this opportunity

Naval Supply Systems Command, NAVSUP FLC Yokosuka Site Marianas, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to Barbee Valve & Supply Inc for proprietary hydrostatic and relief valve test equipment under FAR 6.103-1, with submissions due by September 25, 2026. The procurement covers the Barbee Hose Proof Test Stand (Model HSC-3072-RD10), Relief Valve Test Bench (Model TP-3000-RV), and Water Reclamation System (Model WRS-5) for critical safety and structural integrity testing of flexible hose assemblies and piping systems on forward-deployed naval vessels. Barbee Company is the original equipment manufacturer and sole distributor; no authorized third-party resellers exist. The requirement includes procurement, delivery, and factory calibration. This is not a competitive solicitation and no formal RFP will be issued. The Navy justifies sole source on grounds of proprietary design, existing technician training on Barbee equipment, compatibility with onboard systems, safety requirements for handling pressures up to 30,000 PSI, and urgent operational need to clear maintenance backlogs and prevent fleet readiness bottlenecks. Responsible sources may submit capability statements to Jason Perez (jason.q.perez.civ@us.navy.mil) or Patrick Collins (patrick.p.collins.civ@us.navy.mil) by the closing date.
