About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command is procuring four Cleveland Range KET20T electric tilting steam kettles, each with a 20-gallon capacity, for the USNS Robert F. Kennedy (T-A0 208). The kettles must meet exact specifications including a 2/3 steam jacket design, stainless steel construction, 480v/60/3-ph power configuration, and be hard-wired rather than plug-in units, with no substitutes accepted from the required Cleveland Range brand. This procurement is being pursued under a brand name/standardization justification as the equipment must be compatible with existing galley configurations and meet ABS and USCG maritime rules for the Trans-ALT installation. The government will evaluate quotes based on technical capability and price as primary criteria, awarding to the lowest priced technically acceptable quoter. Quotes are due by August 25, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST, with delivery required by September 30, 2025.
This solicitation does not utilize any small business set-aside designations and follows full and open competition procedures despite the brand name requirement. Two potential sources have been identified: Cleveland Range LLC as the manufacturer and Rose's Equipment Supply, Inc. as a distributor, though the procurement may ultimately be conducted as a sole source acquisition due to standardization requirements. The contract requires delivery to the MSC W143 Warehouse in Norfolk, Virginia, with all equipment pricing to include applicable Section 232 tariffs and DOD unique identification requirements. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 333241 for Food Product Machinery Manufacturing, reflecting the specialized nature of the commercial galley equipment being procured for this naval auxiliary vessel.
