3HD 5365 017330665 D5, BUSHING SLEEVE

This solicitation, numbered N00104-26-Q-FD62, is a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5 for the procurement of a bushing sleeve, with a NAICS code of 332119, issued by the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. The solicitation requires full compliance with stringent military packaging, preservation, and marking standards including MIL-STD-2073-1, MIL-STD-129, and MIL-STD-130, with specific requirements for ESD protection, DLR labeling, and IUID compliance using Data Matrix ECC200 symbology encoded per ISO/IEC standards. Items must be manufactured with traceable materials certified to ASTM-B139 and welded per S9074-AQ-GIB-010/248, with all procedures and personnel qualifications submitted for government approval prior to production. The contract mandates a certificate of compliance that is positive, unqualified, and tied directly to individual item markings, with any deviations or waivers requiring written contracting officer approval. Performance is governed by a 200-day delivery period from order issuance, with FOB destination terms requiring the contractor to bear all transportation costs until final delivery and acceptance at the designated government location. Inspection and acceptance may occur at either the contractor’s plant or destination, at the government’s discretion, with full government rights to source inspection. The evaluation is a trade-off process where past performance, assessed via the Supplier Performance Risk System with color-based risk ratings, outweighs price as the primary factor in award; technical acceptability, including compliance with MIL-I-45208, MIL-STD-45662, and ISO 9001 quality systems, is a threshold requirement for eligibility. Invoicing must be submitted electronically via WAWF, and all contractors must be registered in SAM with active UEIs, while also adhering to clauses addressing trafficking in persons, hexavalent chromium, Buy American, foreign sourcing restrictions, cybersecurity incident reporting, and prohibition on contracting with inverted domestic corporations. Subcontracting is governed by DFARS provisions, and any release of proprietary data to the AbilityOne Program is authorized for closeout purposes, with quality system modifications requiring prior government concurrence. Noncompliance with packaging, marking, certification, or traceability requirements may result in rejection, return at the contractor’s expense, or equitable adjustment claims.
