PT-clad

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is procuring PT-CLAD electroplating materials consisting of two specific items: 1,080 square inches each of PT-CLAD CB-Sheet (SIFCO item #25510300) and PT-CLAD CB-Mesh (SIFCO item #25510130). This is a brand name/sole source procurement for specialized electroplating screens that are designed to integrate with existing electroplating solutions and can only be sourced from SIFCO. The contract will be evaluated using a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach with three evaluation factors in order of precedence: Technical Acceptability (must meet exact specifications outlined on page 5), Delivery (must be delivered F.O.B. destination prior to the required delivery date), and Price (must be determined fair and reasonable). The solicitation deadline was extended to August 26, 2025 at 11:00 AM HST, with questions due 36 business hours prior to submission. All quotes must be submitted electronically to Contract Specialist Anna Gunn at anna.gunn@dla.mil using solicitation number SPMYM4-25-Q-0764.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 332813 (Electroplating, Plating, Polishing, Anodizing, and Coloring) with a size standard of 500 employees. SIFCO, located in Independence, Ohio, appears to be the sole source manufacturer for these specialized electroplating screens based on the brand name justification documentation. The contract does not specify award values, but involves relatively small quantities of 1,080 square inches each of the two material types. Delivery is required by September 15, 2025, to DLA Distribution at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, where the items will be inspected and accepted at destination. Only one quote is allowed per offeror, and multiple quotes under the same CAGE code will result in rejection of all offers from that contractor.
