NUMBER 1 AC PLANT FOUNDATION PARTS

The contract, awarded under solicitation number N0040626QS096, is a firm fixed price supply contract issued by the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound for the procurement of K-FLEX LLC pipe covering and sheet insulation products. The acquisition is a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5, with the NAICS code 314999, and requires delivery to the U.S. Navy Shore Readiness Facility in Sasebo, Japan, specifically at Building 304, Tatgami Cho. The contract involves 40 contract line items, with specified quantities and unit prices for various pipe covering sizes, and delivery dates range from February to July 2026. FOB Origin terms apply, meaning the government assumes responsibility for transportation costs and arrangements once the goods leave the contractor’s facility. Packaging must comply strictly with ASTM-D-3951, prohibiting materials like asbestos, excelsior, and loose fill polystyrene, while wood packaging must be heat-treated to USDA/APHIS standards and accredited by the American Lumber Standards Committee. Marking requirements mandate inclusion of National Stock Numbers, contract numbers, and origin-destination details, with unique identification via Data Matrix symbols per MIL-STD-130 for traceable items. Invoicing is exclusively through Wide Area WorkFlow, with fast pay provisions applicable where eligible. The government will evaluate offers based on technical compliance, price, and past performance using a trade-off process, not a lowest price technically acceptable methodology. Contractor compliance with ethical standards, whistleblower protections, subcontractor restrictions, and prohibitions on certain foreign-sourced equipment and services is enforced through numerous FAR and DFARS clauses, including those addressing cybersecurity, foreign procurement restrictions, and executive compensation reporting. Offerors must be SAM-registered, provide a valid UEI and CAGE code, and certify their small business status, though specific socioeconomic certifications are not available in the executed contract data. The point of contact for contract administration and submissions is Taura Helms, and deliveries must meet all packaging, labeling, and traceability standards prior to government inspection and acceptance at the destination.
