About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy's Military Sealift Command seeks repair of lifeboat davits and sprinkler pumps aboard USNS Robert F. Kennedy through a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order, with offers due November 11, 2026. The requirement is limited to the Original Equipment Manufacturer, PALFINGER MARINE USA, and any offer from another source will not be considered. The Set Aside line reads "No Set-Aside Used."
The sole-source basis is a contracting officer determination to use other than full and open competition under simplified acquisition procedures, citing "Only One Responsible Source," proprietary manufacturer rights, and exclusive licensing for servicing. The memorandum documents urgency under CASREP 26-040, with the requirement identified October 23, 2026 and the vessel planning to get underway November 16, 2026. Performance is listed for November 10 through 13, 2026, and place of performance is listed as United States.
The items are designated critical ship equipment under COMSCINST 4490.1(series) and SMS Procedure 10.6-0002-ALL, and the ship-critical safety items are subject to heightened quality assurance surveillance. Contractors must complete Navy security access procedures, including a SECNAV 5512/1 form for base access, and submit a vendor personnel list four days before any ship visit. Material requires duty-free entry into the United States through PIEE, and payment is made through Wide Area Workflow.
The Government will evaluate quotes on technical acceptability and price reasonableness. Quotes for solicitation N3220527Q7034 are due at 12:00 PM on November 11, 2026, in Adobe or Microsoft Office format by email to contracting officer Caren Edanol at caren.l.edanol.civ@us.navy.mil.
