Net New - PLC Parts for PLC Upgrade

NASA/NSSC is soliciting sole source procurement of commercial industrial automation components for a PLC upgrade at Stennis Space Center, Mississippi, under FAR Part 12, with CRAWFORD ELECTRIC SUPPLY COMPANY, LLC designated as the exclusive provider. The acquisition involves nine specific ControlLogix modules and associated cabling, including digital and analog input/output modules, Ethernet/IP interfaces, power supplies, batteries, and terminal blocks, all designated by exact part numbers and quantities, to be delivered within 30 days of order placement. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 423610 and is intended as a commercial item acquisition, eliminating the need for full and open competition due to the unique nature of the components and the sole-source status of the vendor. Interested parties may submit written capabilities and qualifications by 12:00 p.m. CST on May 21, 2026, to support the government’s determination of sole-source justification, with no oral communications permitted. The contract will be managed by NASA Shared Services Center with performance located at NCCIPS Bldg 9353, Cypress Loop, Stennis Space Center, MS 39529. The NASA FAR Supplement clause 1852.215-84 on Ombudsman applies, and while packaging, marking, inspection, and invoicing details are unspecified due to commercial item treatment under FAR Part 12, acceptance of delivered items is expected at the designated performance location. Pricing, contract value, and detailed payment or accounting data are not included, as this is a pre-award sources-sought notice rather than a finalized contract. No security clearances, key personnel, options, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are required, and no representations or certifications from the offeror are formally requested or provided in the documentation.
