About this opportunity
The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Hawaii (NAVFAC Hawaii) is conducting market research to identify potential alternatives to the SEL-751 automation controller relay manufactured by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories for use at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH), Hawaii. The government currently intends to procure this item from a single responsible source but is seeking other suppliers who can provide equivalent performance capabilities. The required specifications include feeder protection with overcurrent, arc-flash, and high impedance fault protection; programmable logic control capabilities without additional PLCs; support for multiple communication protocols including Modbus, DNP3, and IEC 61850; and reliable operation in harsh industrial or substation environments with extended temperature ranges and high immunity to electrical interference. Interested parties must submit complete technical data, information, and specifications in Adobe PDF format using 11-point Times New Roman font on single-sided 8.5 by 11 inch pages, along with company information and points of contact. The response deadline is September 18, 2025, just seven days after the posting date of September 11, 2025.
This procurement does not include any set-aside designations, making it open to all qualified vendors. Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, located at 2350 NE Hopkins Court, Pullman, WA 99163, appears to be the incumbent manufacturer of the SEL-751 relay that the government is currently planning to procure. The notice does not specify award values, budget ranges, or quantities of equipment needed. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 335314 for Relay and Industrial Control Manufacturing and PSC code 5945 for Relays and Solenoids. This sources sought notice is strictly for market research purposes and does not constitute a commitment by the government to issue a solicitation or award a contract.
