GEAR REDUCER

Solicitation SPMYM221Q2093, issued by the Department of Defense through DLA Maritime - Puget Sound, is a total small business set-aside for the procurement of a gear reducer. Specifically, the requirement is for a direct OEM replacement Horizontal Planetary Reducer Gearbox Model 31H from Peerless-Winsmith INC to be used for a Betts-Bridgeford Shaft Lathe. This procurement is designated as a sole source acquisition to ensure exact OEM specifications are met, maintaining precision geometric tolerances and compatibility with existing Fanuc drive motors, as aftermarket alternatives would necessitate extensive re-engineering. The contract is managed by the office in Bremerton, Washington, and requires a signed and completed solicitation submitted via email to be deemed responsive. A critical compliance requirement for the awardee is the implementation of NIST SP 800-171, which requires a current assessment not more than three years old, unless the items are identified as Commercial Off The Shelf and approved for exemption by the contracting officer. Bidders must also ensure all applicable boxes in clause 52.204-26 are correctly completed.
