Annular Ball Bearings in support of the U.S. Army Security Assistance Command (USASAC) under FMS Case: IS-B-BLZ

This contract solicitation, numbered W91CRB-26-R-BALL, is a re-opened opportunity for a 100% Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 332991 to procure 20 annular ball bearings with part number 6425518-6 and national stock number 3110013905240 in support of the U.S. Army Security Assistance Command under Foreign Military Sales Case IS-B-BLZ for Israel. The solicitation requires vendors to submit quotes via email to the designated point of contact by the revised deadline of June 16, 2026, and mandates strict compliance with the System for Award Management registration, including the submission of a valid CAGE Code and Unique Entity Identifier. The contract is structured as a Firm Fixed Price award under a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable evaluation method, where technical acceptability—verified through compliance with the specified part number, NSN, and Certificate of Conformance—is a non-negotiable prerequisite, followed by price competition among qualified offerors. The vendor is responsible for preparing the shipment for pickup at a location within the continental United States and must coordinate directly with a government-designated freight forwarder; shipping costs are borne exclusively by the Government and must not be included in the quote, which must clearly state the pickup address. All deliveries are governed by F.O.B. Origin terms, transferring title and risk upon delivery to the designated pickup point. The contract includes numerous FAR and DFARS clauses related to small business certification, electronic payment via SAM, prohibition on certain foreign-supplied telecommunications equipment, combating human trafficking, equal opportunity, whistleblower protections, and security requirements for handling defense information, but does not specify detailed packaging, preservation, or marking standards beyond requiring inclusion of the NSN, P/N, CAGE Code, and UEI on labeling. The Government reserves the right to cancel the solicitation at any time without obligation, and vendors must be prepared for extended FMS coordination timelines with no reimbursement for storage or delays attributable to international shipment processes.
