Floating Crane Fire Suppression System Maintenance, Repair, and Re-Certification Services

The Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility is conducting market research through a Sources Sought notice for Fire Suppression System Maintenance, Repair, and Re-Certification Services pertaining to the floating crane YD-263, with work to be performed within its Controlled Industrial Area in Bremerton, Washington. This notice is purely for informational and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation, invitation to bid, or obligation to award a contract. The anticipated NAICS code is 811310, with a small business size standard of $12.5 million in average annual receipts, and the government is evaluating industry capability to determine whether the requirement will be set aside for small businesses, pursued through full and open competition, or awarded on a sole source basis. Interested parties must be registered in SAM.gov and respond by the deadline with a letter on company letterhead identifying a point of contact, a brief overview of their capabilities aligned with the notional Performance Work Statement, and responses to four specific questions regarding business size, past performance, organizational competency, and intent to submit a future quote. Responses are limited to five pages and must be emailed with the specified subject line to the designated government contacts, and all information submitted will be treated as confidential and exempt from public release under the Freedom of Information Act. The government will not evaluate, comment on, or pay for responses, nor will this notice obligate the government to issue a solicitation in the future. Respondents are advised that any future opportunity will be formally published as a synopsis on SAM.gov, and it is their responsibility to monitor that site for updates. Failure to respond to this sources sought notice will not disqualify a company from submitting a proposal when a Request for Quote is eventually released, and all costs associated with responding to this notice are borne solely by the respondent.
