About this opportunity
Military Sealift Command seeks to procure shaft bearing components for the USNS ARCTIC (T-AOE 8), with proposals due September 8 at 10:00 AM. The procurement is a Women-Owned Small Business set-aside issued as an 8(a) sole source under simplified acquisition authority; only Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are acceptable.
Place of performance is Norfolk, Virginia. The sole-source justification rests on exclusive licensing: Duramax Marine holds the only reasonably available supply of these staves, which are specified in ship construction drawing 636793H and required by fleet standardization policy (COMSC INST 4790.3) to maintain T-AKE class ship configuration baseline. The contracting officer determined that MSC lacks the manufacturing and technical information necessary to evaluate alternatives. Delivery is required by January 15, 2027, to MSC Warehouse in Norfolk (Naval Base Building W143 DW 10).
Six line items are specified: ROMOR X2 and ROMOR I shaft bearing staves in various configurations and lengths, with quantities ranging from 52 to 84 units per item. All items are firm fixed price. The NAICS code is 332991 (Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing); PSC is 3120 (Bearings, Plain, Unmounted). The solicitation incorporates FAR clauses 52.212-1, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, and 52.212-5, along with DFARS requirements including Buy American compliance, hexavalent chromium prohibition, and Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region restrictions. Invoices are submitted via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF); inspection and acceptance occur at destination.
