About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy is seeking a contractor to provide Aviator Breathing Oxygen (ABO) and Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) to various locations in the Northeast United States. The procurement will be conducted using Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 procedures for commercial items, with a Firm Fixed-Price Requirements Contract. Potential vendors must submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet technical specifications, perform sampling and testing, allow government quality assurance inspections, and be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). Evaluation criteria will focus on vendors' capabilities to fully meet product specifications, provide ancillary services, and support DLA Energy's customer needs. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on January 15, 2025, with responses due by January 29, 2025, and the solicitation expected to be issued around January 2025.
The contract has no specific small business set-aside and will be competed among all qualified suppliers who can provide the required products. The period of performance is five years, from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2030, with estimated quantities of 2,213,500 gallons of Aviator Breathing Oxygen and 998,125 gallons of Liquid Nitrogen. The procurement will use statutory authority under 41 U.S.C.3304(a)(1), which allows for non-competitive procedures when the agency's needs can only be met by a unique supplier. Contractors must be able to provide the products F.O.B. Destination and offer additional services such as tank usage fees, equipment installation and removal, expedited delivery, and other related services. The contract will include provisions for meeting military specifications for both ABO (MIL-PRF-27210J) and Liquid Nitrogen (Commercial Item Description A-A-59503).
