About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) has issued a sole source solicitation for a Helios G4 maintenance agreement with FEI Company, the original equipment manufacturer located in Hillsboro, Oregon. The procurement, identified by solicitation number N00164-25-Q-0576, is specifically for maintenance services for scientific equipment at the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane. The solicitation is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 procedures, with the government intending to negotiate directly with FEI Company based on their status as the original manufacturer. While the procurement is technically sole source, the government will accept capability statements from other potential vendors, though the ultimate decision to compete the contract remains at the government's discretion. Interested vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and must submit their responses via email to sandra.e.gunderman.civ@us.navy.mil by March 20, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time.
The contract encompasses maintenance services for the Helios G4 UX Scanning Electron Microscope and includes three specific line items: Helios G4 UX service, MultiChem Gas Delivery service, and FEI EasyLift EX service, all priced on a firm fixed-price basis. The period of performance is set for one year, spanning from April 7, 2025, to April 6, 2026. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with the specific product service code J066 for maintenance of instruments and laboratory equipment. While no specific set-aside was mentioned in the primary solicitation, the attached government file suggests this might be designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) procurement. All contract administration, delivery, and performance will occur at the NSWC Crane location in Indiana. Potential contractors should carefully review the solicitation documents and be prepared to demonstrate their capabilities if they wish to compete for this maintenance agreement.
