About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has awarded a sole-source firm-fixed-price contract to Crane Pumps & Systems PFT Corp for the procurement of six centrifugal pump units (NSN 4320-00-368-3186, part number 777H440), configured per AEL 2-88MSC2001.

The sole-source justification rests on an exclusive licensing agreement; the required pumps are available only from the original equipment manufacturer, Crane Pumps & Systems PFT Corp. The pumps are critical safety items for supplying high-pressure water to fire main systems and emergency use. Market research confirmed no alternative models currently meet the Navy's delivery requirements. Authority cited is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which permits single-source procurement when the contracting officer determines only one source is reasonably available. Delivery is required by December 1, 2026. The Navy is developing additional approved models with the In-Service Engineering Agent but none satisfy current delivery timelines. The notice was posted May 19, 2026, with technical certification by Robert T. Garback and contracting officer certification by Roy Thomas Jones.
