Modification to N00406-12-P-1190 Sole Source Dresser-Rand for repair to ship's steam air compressors onboard naval vessel

The Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound plans to issue a modification to the existing purchase order N00406-12-P-1190 originally awarded to Dresser-Rand Company, based in Chula Vista, CA, on January 13, 2012. This sole source modification, authorized under Section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act and implemented via FAR 13.501(a), aims to supply additional repair parts, technical services, and testing for the #1 and #3 Ship’s Steam Air Compressors aboard the USS George Washington (CVN73) while stationed in Yokosuka, Japan. Dresser-Rand, as the original equipment manufacturer, is uniquely positioned to meet these requirements without risking operational delays, justifying the sole source procurement without a competitive solicitation. The original contract was exempt from synopsis due to urgency under FAR 5.202(a)(2). This modification process is not open for competitive proposals, and all inquiries must be submitted in writing by March 5, 2012, by 4 pm PST to the designated Contract Specialist. This action falls under NAICS code 336611 and is managed by the Naval Supply Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound located in Bremerton, WA, within the Department of Defense. The primary objective is to ensure the continued operation and reliability of critical shipboard compressors supporting the naval vessel.
