EATON Valve Plugs for the National Logistics Support Center in Grandview, MO

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking to award a firm fixed price contract for EATON Valve Plugs, part number M-109, with national stock number 4730-01-190-9157, to support maintenance operations at the National Logistics Support Center in Grandview, Missouri. This is a brand name requirement justified by extensive research confirming that no comparable product can meet the exact fit, form, and function necessary for replacement in the Azimuth Drive Module Assembly of NEXRAD radar equipment. Without this specific component, the National Weather Service cannot fulfill its Tri-Agency Agreement to maintain spare parts inventory, putting the mission readiness of the nationwide radar network at significant risk. The solicitation, identified as 142082-26-0451, is structured as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 332911 and will be awarded based on the lowest evaluated price from quotes that meet or exceed the acceptability standards for non-cost factors, in accordance with FAR 12.203(c)(2). All offerors must be registered and active in the System for Award Management (SAM) with a valid Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and must provide a written confirmation of their small business status, organizational conflict of interest status, and official authorization as an EATON reseller. Submissions must be sent via email to the point of contact by the deadline of July 22, 2026, and failure to comply with any mandatory documentation requirement will result in a non-compliant quote. Deliveries must be made to 14200 Merritt Rd, Grandview, MO 64030, with partial and early shipments permitted. Each valve plug must be individually packaged in a unit shipping container of sufficient strength to withstand handling by commercial carriers such as FedEx and USPS, and these containers must then be placed within exterior shipping packages. All shipments must be palletized to a maximum of 44 inches by 44 inches with a stacking height not to exceed 48 inches, shrink-wrapped, and double-strapped in both directions. Markings must adhere strictly to MIL-STD-129M and MIL-STD-1189B, including text identification of product, contract, and vendor details as well as barcoded data; serialized container numbers and total shipment counts must be clearly labeled on multi-container shipments.
