5305 SCREW, QTR 20

The U.S. Navy’s Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound is sole-sourcing a procurement of mechanical hardware components, primarily SCREW, QTR 20, along with associated items such as spacers, retainer plates, thermowell assemblies, drain line assemblies, mounting brackets, pressure switches, nameplates, and pipe fittings, all manufactured to Drawing B12744 Rev A and the 2KX2-30A/B Non-MAG Product Specification. This requirement is restricted to Rix Industries due to proprietary design and technical specifications, with no competitive solicitation planned. The delivery is scheduled for May 2026 under a Firm Fixed Price contract with F.O.B. Origin terms, meaning the Government assumes transportation responsibility from the contractor’s shipping point. All items must be delivered to PSC 476 BOX 16, FPO AP 96322-1400, with inspection and acceptance occurring at the destination by the Government. Packaging must comply with ASTM-D-3951, prohibiting hazardous or non-neutral materials, and requires heat-treated wood packaging where applicable; marking must include NSN or part number, nomenclature, quantity, contract number, and origin/destination details. Unique Item Identification (UII) under MIL-STD-130 and MIL-STD-129 applies if contractually mandated. Pricing is not pre-filled, and offerors must provide their own unit and extended prices. Evaluation will be based on price, delivery, technical compliance, and past performance using a best-value trade-off approach, not lowest price technically acceptable. Offerors must be registered in SAM with a valid CAGE code, declare their size status, and comply with cybersecurity requirements including NIST SP 800-171, safeguarding covered defense information, and reporting cyber incidents under DFARS 252.204-7012. Additional obligations include adhering to the prohibition on procurement involving Xinjiang-sourced goods, ensuring supply chain integrity, providing antiterrorism training, and complying with whistleblower protections. Invoicing is exclusively through Wide Area WorkFlow, and Lorraine Small serves as both Contracting Officer and Contracting Officer’s Representative. Technical drawings and technical guidance information are not provided in the solicitation but are accessible to qualified parties registered in the Joint Certification Program using their CAGE code and DD-2345 form.
