Siemens energy cooler coil

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking to procure a specialized Siemens Energy Cooler Coil, specifically an air duct type heat exchanger for PTO generator systems on MSC T-AO vessels. The solicitation (N0040625QS165) is for a single cooling coil with part number KM11-140G66-NSV-SDRK50, which is being pursued as a sole source procurement due to Siemens Energy's status as the original equipment manufacturer with proprietary design rights. The contract will be a firm fixed-price arrangement, with contractors required to use the Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) electronic invoicing system and provide 48-hour advance delivery notification. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on price and potential past performance, with the government reserving the right to assess contractor qualifications comprehensively. The key response deadline is May 16, 2025, with a required delivery date of August 29, 2025.

The solicitation is set aside as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) contract under NAICS category 333415 for Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing. The cooling coil specifications include 2500 kW, 60Hz, 450 Volts, 3950 Amp, and 1200 RPM, with delivery required to the Military Sealift Command BATS in San Diego, California. While a specific award value is not explicitly stated, the procurement is for a single, specialized component that appears to be a critical replacement part for military vessel equipment. The sole source nature of the contract indicates that Siemens Energy is the only qualified vendor, with no competitive bidding possible due to the proprietary design and technical specifications of the cooler coil. Contractors will be required to provide a unique item identifier and ensure traceable freight, with the contract placing maximum risk on the contractor through the firm fixed-price structure.
