PLUG,PROTECTIVE,DUS

The Department of the Navy, NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Mechanicsburg, has issued a total small business set-aside solicitation to procure protective plugs and needle plugs. The selected contractor must manufacture the needle plugs using cold-drawn material in accordance with Naval Ordnance Command drawings and strict special emphasis control procedures. Because the items are designated for a crucial shipboard system, the procurement requires rigorous quality assurance, including an ISO-9001 compliant quality system, material traceability to chemical and mechanical test reports, and 100 percent inspection of certification data. Final material delivery is required within 365 days of the contract's effective date, and offers will be evaluated on past performance under a DO-rated defense order.
