Sources Sought DLA Upright Rack Repair

Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, operating under the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of providing repair services for a damaged storage rack upright used for material storage. The procurement requires contractors to provide both product and installation services, specifically ordering, shipping, and installing a Damotech Upright Repair Kit or comparable alternative solution. This sources sought notice is being issued to determine the availability of capable and experienced contractors who can deliver comprehensive repair solutions. The agency will use responses to develop future solicitation requirements and determine appropriate procurement strategies for the actual contract opportunity. Interested parties must submit their responses by June 30, 2025, as this market research period closes just six days after the posting date of June 24, 2025.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to small business contractors under NAICS code 811310 for Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or provide specific budget ranges or award values, as this is purely a market research exercise rather than an active solicitation. No contract will be awarded directly from this sources sought announcement, and responses will solely inform the development of the future formal procurement. The scope appears limited to a single repair project involving one damaged storage rack upright, though specific quantities and service timelines are not detailed in this preliminary notice. The procurement falls under PSC code J039 for maintenance, repair, and rebuild of materials handling equipment.
