FY16 OPN Procurement

The Naval Sea Systems Command plans to award a contract to Bechtel Plant Machinery Inc. for the procurement of naval nuclear propulsion components. This contract is associated with the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program, though specific details such as the completion date or additional contract parameters are not provided. The government intends to negotiate the contract as a sole-source acquisition under FAR 6.302, meaning Bechtel is the only planned contractor; however, other interested and capable parties may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations, which will be considered to determine if a competitive procurement is warranted. This notice serves primarily for informational purposes and is not a formal request for competitive proposals. Organizations interested in subcontracting opportunities are encouraged to contact Bechtel Plant Machinery Inc. directly. Responses to this notice must be submitted within forty-five days of its publication (or thirty days if an award is made under an existing basic ordering agreement) to be considered. The decision to proceed with a competitive procurement lies solely with the government based on the information received. Contact points for this solicitation include Ryan J. Kelsey, Contract Specialist, and Susan B. Scutt, the Procuring Contracting Officer, both reachable via provided email addresses and phone numbers. The solicitation is identified as N00024-15-R-2109 under NAICS code 541330 and is classified as a presolicitation notice.
