The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Center San Diego seeks approval for a firm-fixed price delivery order to procure ICombi Rational Model Ovens for the USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT’s galley, citing brand name justification to comply with specific operational needs and avoid significant costs associated with incompatible equipment. The procurement process follows the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 8.4 guidelines, and extensive market research indicated that only the Rational ovens meet the necessary specifications, as alternative brands failed during previous trials on other carriers. This sole-source procurement is deemed urgent to support ongoing food service operations on the carrier, with delivery expected within 45 calendar days post-award.
The document outlines a Request for Quotation (RFQ) N0024425Q0089 for the acquisition of a Combi Oven and related items for the United States Navy, with a submission deadline for offers set for April 30, 2025. The total contract is categorized under small business set-aside requirements, making it a targeted initiative to support small businesses, specifically service-disabled veteran-owned and women-owned enterprises. The vendor must provide a new Rational Model ICP 6-FULL E 440V 3 PH Combi Oven and associated installation and filtration equipment, with expected delivery by August 15, 2025, to a defined location in San Diego, CA.
Terms of the procurement include adherence to certain Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, emphasizing compliance with small business regulations, and stipulating that proposals and pricing will be disclosed under the Freedom of Information Act as applicable. The document also delineates the roles of various governmental offices in contract administration, including responsibilities for contract modifications and invoice processing through the Wide Area Workflow system. Overall, the RFQ is structured to ensure competitive bidding while promoting compliance and accountability within government contracting.
