The Department of Defense, specifically the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Contracting Department, plans to contract maintenance services for gas chromatography instruments used by the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF).
This maintenance work is intended to be awarded on a sole source basis to Verder Scientific, Inc. under the FAR 13.106-1(b) guidelines. However, the NAVSEA remains open to receiving and reviewing submissions from other responsible parties.
The services required involve specialized maintenance and support for gas chromatography equipment, likely including the repair, recalibration, and potential replacement of components. The work is expected to be commercial in nature, and the contract will likely be firm-fixed priced.
Interested parties should monitor the sam.gov website for the official solicitation, expected to be posted around July 25, 2024, with quotes due on or about July 29, 2024. The solicitation will outline the specific requirements and expectations for the maintenance services.
NAVSEA will evaluate submissions based on the criteria outlined in the solicitation, which will be available on sam.gov. Applicants should ensure their submissions adhere to the outlined requirements and provide a comprehensive proposal.
For clarity and to avoid any potential issues, applicants are advised to direct any inquiries to the primary contact, Andrew Smith, via email at andrew.r.smith6@navy.mil, or the secondary contact, Brian Fergus, at brian.fergus@navy.mil.
Note: The information provided is based on the current notice and may not capture all eventual details. Applicants should refer to the official solicitation for the final scope and requirements.
