Honeybee Dust Tolerant Connectors

This procurement is for Honeybee Dust Tolerant Connectors under a brand-name requirement limited exclusively to authorized Honeybee Robotics resellers, issued as a combined solicitation with the identification number 80NSSC26929726Q by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The solicitation mandates that all offers be submitted in PDF format via email to Monica Wilson at monica.d.wilson@nasa.gov, with the RFQ notice ID clearly stated in the email subject line. Respondents must provide their CAGE/UEI code, FOB Destination terms, estimated lead time for delivery—which is specified as 12 weeks from award or order—and the name and email of their point of contact. The contract is structured as a Firm Fixed Price arrangement evaluated under the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, meaning only technically compliant offers will be considered, and the award will go to the lowest-priced submission meeting all requirements. The place of performance is Stennis Space Center, Mississippi, and delivery must be made FOB Destination with all packages clearly marked “UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT” and the contracting agency’s title, accompanied by two copies of the shipping document listing gross weight and estimated value. Contractors must be registered in SAM.gov and comply with clauses related to personal identity verification, System for Award Management maintenance, export controls including ITAR and EAR compliance, duty-free entry provisions for eligible items, and NASA-specific requirements for facility access denial and handling of sensitive information. The NAICS code 334417 applies, and while the solicitation implies a small business set-aside, no specific socioeconomic certifications are required beyond UEI/CAGE validation and SAM.gov registration. No detailed technical specifications, inspection criteria, or quality standards beyond general compliance with the solicitation are provided; acceptance occurs at the final destination, and the government retains authority to deny access to personnel or reject nonconforming deliveries. All submissions must strictly adhere to the stated format and procedural requirements to be considered.
