    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA Maritime - Puget Sound), is seeking qualified small businesses to provide rubber expansion joints as part of a total small business set-aside contract. The procurement includes the supply of 42-inch and 46-inch non-metallic expansion joints, which must meet specific operational and material standards, including hydrostatic testing and compliance with ASTM-F1123. These components are critical for naval applications, particularly in handling seawater, and must adhere to strict quality and certification requirements. Interested vendors should submit their quotes by January 14, 2026, and can direct inquiries to Denise M. Quist at Denise.Quist@dla.mil or by phone at 360-476-6075.

    The document, Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract (Standard Form 30), serves as an amendment to solicitation number SPMYM226Q5286, originally dated January 6, 2026. Issued by DLA MARITIME - PUGET SOUND, this amendment extends the offer due date from January 12, 2026, to January 14, 2026. Contractors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment to ensure their offers are considered. The amendment explicitly states that all other terms and conditions of the original solicitation remain unchanged. This modification, effective January 7, 2026, is essential for potential offerors to note the revised deadline for submissions.
    The document outlines Contract Data Requirements Lists (CDRLs) for government contracts, detailing requirements for submitting specific data items. The first CDRL, A001, concerns a "Certificate of Compliance" (DI-MISC-81356A). The second, B001, requires a "Test/Inspection Report" and specifically a "Hydrostatic Test Report" (DI-QCIC-82089). Both CDRLs emphasize that submissions, including certification and data reports, must be attached within the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) e-Business Suite. Acceptance or rejection of these documents will occur concurrently with the corresponding material, not prior to shipment. Distribution for both data items is restricted to DoD and DoD contractors only, with other U.S. requests referred to COMNAVSEASYSCOM. The estimated public reporting burden for this information collection is 110 hours per response.
    This government file outlines Contract Data Requirements Lists (CDRLs) for two distinct data items: a Certificate of Compliance and a Test/Inspection Report, specifically a Hydrostatic Test Report. Both CDRLs are approved under OMB No. 0704-0188 and detail requirements for data submission within federal government contracts. The Certificate of Compliance (DI-MISC-81356A) mandates attaching certification/data report documentation to the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) e-Business Suite, with acceptance occurring concurrently with material acceptance. The Hydrostatic Test Report (DI-QCIC-82089) requires traceability to the material via unique marking and also specifies submission through WAWF, with acceptance linked to material acceptance. Both documents emphasize a Distribution Statement D, limiting distribution to DoD and DoD contractors only, effective October 10, 2025. Other U.S. requests must be referred to COMNAVSEASYSCOM. The file provides instructions for public reporting burden and directs completed forms to the Government Issuing Contracting Officer.
    This government file details the material ordering data for four 46-inch non-metallic expansion joints, referencing ASTM-F-1123, dated 1987 (reapproved 2024). Key specifications include a 46-inch inside diameter, a 12-inch face-to-face dimension (± 3/16 inch), and operating pressures between 21 psig minimum and 40 psig maximum. Operating temperatures must range from 60°F minimum to 105°F maximum. The expansion joints are designed to handle seawater. Flange drilling is specific to one flange, requiring a 52-inch bolt circle diameter (± 5/16 inch) with 42 bolt holes, each 1-5/16 inches in diameter (± 1/64 inch). The order requires Grade A shock requirements, a hydrostatic test at 60 psig with a certified report, and certification of the expansion joints. The manufacture date must not be prior to the fourth quarter of 2022. All containers must be marked in accordance with MIL-STD-129.
    This government file details material ordering data for a 42-inch non-metallic expansion joint, adhering to ASTM-F1123 standards. Key specifications include a 42-inch inside diameter, a 12-inch face-to-face dimension, and operational pressure ranging from 21 psig minimum to 40 psig maximum. Operating temperatures are set between 60°F and 105°F. The expansion joint requires a single flange drilled with 38 holes of 1-5/16-inch diameter on a 47-3/4-inch bolt circle diameter. It is intended to handle seawater. The order mandates a hydrostatic test at 60 psig, with a certified report required, and certification of the expansion joint is also necessary. Additional requirements include meeting Grade A shock standards and a manufacture date no earlier than the fourth quarter of 2022. All packaging must comply with MIL-STD-129.
    This government solicitation (SPMYM226Q5286) is a Request for Quote (RFQ) for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) to supply 46-inch and 42-inch rubber expansion joints with retaining rings, hydro-tested, and Grade A shock qualified, per specific drawings. The solicitation, issued by DLA Maritime - Puget Sound, includes requirements for electronic invoicing via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), strict inspection and acceptance at destination (PUGET SOUND NAVAL SHIPYARD IMF within 45 days), and detailed delivery schedules by February 2, 2026. Contractors must comply with various Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) clauses, including those on item unique identification, mercury exclusion, and vendor shipment module usage. Special instructions for base access via the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) are also provided, emphasizing security and traceability.
    Appendix B of the document, titled "Navy Approved Manufacturers and Drawings For Rubber Expansion Joints," lists three approved manufacturers: LaFavorite Industries, Unaflex Corporation, and Holz Rubber Company. For each manufacturer, the document provides contact information, including address and phone number, and a specific drawing number with its revision. The document explicitly states that these drawings will not be posted or emailed. This appendix likely serves as a reference for government RFPs, federal grants, or state and local RFPs, specifying acceptable sources and documentation for rubber expansion joints in Navy-related projects.
