Seat, split (sole source)

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is soliciting quotes for two split seats with MX-9 shaft seal components for CVN-class ships, with proposals due June 29, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement restricted to Defense Maritime Solutions (CAGE 0SYA6), the original equipment manufacturer, foreclosing competition outside that vendor.

Place of performance is Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington 98314, with delivery required by November 18, 2026. The National Stock Number is 2040-01-454-8170. The procurement is set aside for Women-Owned Small Business concerns with a 750-employee size standard. The solicitation identifies this as a firm fixed-price acquisition for commercial products with a budget range of $15,000 to $350,000.

Offerors must submit completed and signed solicitations including manufacturer information, country of origin, and lead time for delivery (FOB destination) via email to Tricia.Wintersteen@DLA.MIL.

Contractors must identify COTS items and provide information to the contracting officer during the solicitation period.

Evaluation criteria include technical acceptability, price, and past performance, with technical and past performance factors approximately equal to cost when combined. Awardees must maintain comprehensive general liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence, automobile liability coverage, and workers' compensation insurance. Contractors require DBIDS credentials for base access and must comply with supply chain traceability documentation requirements, maintaining records for five years after final payment.
