Rotary piston pump

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is procuring 2 Kinney KD50B-M480 rotary piston pumps through a sole source solicitation for direct replacement of existing end-of-life rotary pumps used by Shop 56 A&R Mechanics for refrigerant recovery at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. Contractors must comply with NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity requirements unless the items are deemed Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS), and must provide current assessments not more than 3 years old as detailed in DFARS 252.204-7019. Bidders must submit comprehensive information including contractor details and CAGE code, points of contact, quotes FOB destination Bremerton WA, manufacturer information and country of origin, lead times, and various regulatory compliance certifications. The solicitation requires completion of multiple standard federal acquisition regulation provisions including supply chain security and unique item identification requirements. The response deadline is Sunday, September 28, 2025 at 7AM, with signed and completed solicitations required via email submission to be deemed responsive.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, though the government file summary indicates it was originally set aside for Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), suggesting a potential discrepancy in the set-aside designation. The contract specifies delivery to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington 98314 by September 30, 2025, with an anticipated lead time of 8-9 weeks for the specialized pumps. The procurement is justified as sole source because utilizing alternative pumps would require retraining mechanics and increase operational costs for the Navy facility. No specific contract value is disclosed in the solicitation materials, though the quantity is limited to 2 units of the specified Kinney model rotary piston pumps. The extremely tight timeline between the September 26 posting date and September 28 response deadline indicates this is likely an urgent operational requirement for the naval facility.
