91--HI-MIDWAY ATOLL-#2 Diesel for loading on JUNE VOYAGE

The contract is a Firm Fixed Price Commercial Products Contract for the delivery of 43,000 gallons of dyed Diesel #2 fuel to Honolulu Harbor, Pier 1, Hawaii, with all fuel to be transferred over water onto the stationary ISO tanks of the vessel Imua, with performance required between June 1 and June 8, 2026, and delivery to be completed no later than the morning of June 8, 2026. Solicited as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 324110, the procurement is restricted to small business concerns and was issued as a Request for Quotation with proposals due electronically by May 22, 2026. Offerors must submit a two-part quotation—non-price and price sections—with the non-price portion requiring certification to deliver fuel over water and documentation proving that the driver and vehicle possess all necessary federal access credentials, including a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) for Honolulu Harbor, Pier 1. The vendor is responsible for all personnel, equipment, supervision, transportation, and incidental costs associated with the delivery, including on-site longshoremen. The contract emphasizes non-price technical factors, which serve as pass/fail gates and are significantly more important than price, with no trade-offs permitted and any unbalanced option pricing rendering an offer unacceptable. The contract incorporates numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses ensuring compliance with ethics, safety, labor, and procurement standards, including provisions on contractor code of conduct, whistleblower protections, equal opportunity for veterans and workers with disabilities, combating trafficking in persons with Alternate I, accelerated payments to small business subcontractors, preference for U.S.-flag vessels, and safeguarding of controlled information. Offerors must maintain current representations and certifications in SAM, including small business status, and are required to flow down key clauses to subcontractors. Invoicing must be submitted electronically through the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform, with specific formatting rules including itemized breakdowns for lump-sum payments and a formal release of claims attached to the final invoice. Performance will be assessed via CPARS and recorded in PPIRS. The contracting officer holds sole authority over contract modifications, while a designated contracting officer’s representative will monitor technical compliance. The contractor must also comply with Buy American requirements and federal safeguarding standards for controlled unclassified information, under Executive Order 13556, and avoid any involvement with entities engaged in prohibited solicitations or inverted domestic corporations. All submissions must reference the solicitation number in the subject
