High-Volume Gasket Supply

The contract calls for the supply of 20 units of a preformed gasket identified by NSN 5330-99-5132218 and part number 12YJC.45185, to be delivered to Canadian Forces Base Esquimalt and Canadian Forces Base Halifax. The gaskets must fully comply with military specifications for preformed seals, ensuring dimensional accuracy, material integrity, and performance under operational conditions. Full traceability is required for every unit, meaning each gasket must be documented from raw material sourcing through manufacturing, inspection, and final delivery, with all records maintained to support quality assurance and audit readiness. Additionally, the gaskets must adhere to strict shelf life requirements, ensuring they remain viable and effective through storage and deployment, with expiration dates clearly marked and validated. The contract is classified as a subcontract under the NAICS code 332996, issued by the Department of National Defence on behalf of the Government of Canada, with a response deadline of June 3, 2026. The place of performance spans locations in British Columbia and Nova Scotia, aligning with the operational needs of the two naval bases. While no set-aside designation is specified, the requirement emphasizes compliance with defense standards, making experience in military-grade component production a de facto prerequisite. The tender opportunity is publicly accessible via the Canada Buys portal, and submission must meet all technical, documentation, and delivery criteria outlined by the defense procurement authority.
