Steam Pad Maintenance

The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Lakehurst, NJ is seeking a sole source Firm-Fixed-Price contract for monthly steam pad maintenance of a Model VR/HD/SPPT-15 closed loop wastewater recycling system and grease absorbent bags. The procurement supports the Prototype, Manufacturing, and Test Division (PMTD) and is being pursued under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows for non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. JDI, Inc. (CAGE: 448X2) has been identified as the sole distributor capable of meeting the specific maintenance needs. The government will consider responses received within fifteen days of the March 13, 2025 publication date, with mandatory vendor registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) as a prerequisite for consideration. While this is not a competitive solicitation, the agency remains open to evaluating potential alternative sources.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations and does not provide precise contract value details. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 811310 for Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance and PSC Code J036 for Maintenance, Repair, and Rebuilding of Special Industry Machinery. The contract duration and specific service quantities are not explicitly defined in the notice. The due date for responses is March 27, 2025, and the government retains flexibility to modify the procurement approach based on any responses received. Potential contractors should note that the government's determination regarding competitive procurement will be based solely on the responses to this notice, and the information provided is subject to change without binding the government to issue a contract solicitation.
