Procure Consulting Services for SSC Stamp (VR and T/O) Certifications

NASA's Shared Services Center has published a Special Notice seeking consulting services to obtain SSC Stamp certifications for Valve Repair (VR) and Test Only (TO) operations at the Stennis Space Center. The agency intends to award a sole source contract to JAC PRV CONSULTING LLC under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), having determined this company is the only provider capable of delivering the required specialized consulting services. The procurement falls under NAICS code 541690 for Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services and will utilize commercial acquisition procedures under FAR Parts 12 and 13. Performance will take place at NASA Stennis Space Center, with the Shared Services Center serving as the procuring organization. The notice specifically addresses the acquisition of turnkey consulting services related to National Board certifications for pressure relief valve operations.

The primary objective is to secure comprehensive consulting services that will enable NASA Stennis Space Center to obtain National Board "VR" (Repair) and "TO" (Test Only) certifications for pressure relief valves through development of a Quality Control Program and specialized training implementation. Interested organizations must submit written capabilities and qualifications by 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on August 29, 2025, with oral communications explicitly prohibited. The government will evaluate these submissions solely to determine whether to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis, though the final decision remains at the government's discretion. The consulting services will include on-site classroom and hands-on training for engineers, technicians, and quality assurance personnel to implement the National Board Inspection Code (NBIC) VR and TO programs. Both VR and TO stamps will be owned by NASA with provisions allowing delegation of work to NASA contractors, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the certification requirements.
