N6133126R0007

The contract N6133126R0007 is a five-year Firm Fixed Price Blanket Purchasing Agreement awarded on a HUBZone sole-source basis to GTA Containers, LLC, a small business certified under the HUBZone Act of 1997. The agreement supports the U.S. Marine Corps’ Expeditionary Fuel Distribution System by procuring three critical components: 332 units of 2-inch flow meters (NSN 6680-01-534-0892), 332 units of 4-inch flow meters (NSN 6680-01-534-0890), and 1,308 H-Manifolds (GTA P/N GTA-EFDS-HV2), totaling 1,972 units. The award is justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(5) and FAR 6.302-5(b)(5) because GTA Containers, LLC is the exclusive original equipment manufacturer with proprietary designs that cannot be replicated by any other source without over twelve months of reengineering and retesting, making competition impracticable. Funding is allocated from Other Procurement, Navy (OPN) accounts across fiscal years 2026 through 2031, with delivery schedules governed by individual task orders issued under the BPA structure. The contractor’s principal place of performance is in South Bend, Indiana, with the contracting office located at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Panama City Division in Florida. The components are engineered for military operational environments with cam-lock fittings and integrated valve systems, ensuring compatibility and rapid field maintenance, but no specific packaging, marking, inspection, or acceptance standards are detailed in the documentation. The contract includes four option periods extending the base ordering period to five years, ensuring uninterrupted supply without recompetition. No pricing data, payment office details, COR/COTR information, invoicing method, or formal quality standards are specified, and while the HUBZone certification triggers ongoing compliance requirements regarding employee residency and principal office location, no security clearances, key personnel, or organizational conflict provisions are included.
