PARTS KIT, BALL VALVE

The Department of National Defence is soliciting bids for two identical parts kits for ball valve maintenance, each supplied by Canadian Worcester Controls under part number 20AFMNK85QCCPFC or 50MMAF85QC MAINT KIT, with GSIN 4820 and NCAGE 38003. Eight kits are required for delivery to CFB Halifax, Nova Scotia, and six kits to CFB Esquimalt, British Columbia, with all deliveries subject to Delivery Duty Paid terms, meaning the contractor must bear all transportation, duties, and taxes to the final destination. Submissions must clearly indicate any equivalent or substitute products with full brand, model, and NCAGE details. The procurement follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable methodology, awarding contracts on an item-by-item basis to the lowest-priced offer that meets all mandatory technical and compliance criteria, including an 80% Canadian content requirement. Offerors must comply with strict Canadian packaging and marking standards, specifically D-LM-008-001/SF-001 and D-LM-008-036/SF-000, and adhere to NATO TL8100-0100 standards for international suppliers, with all items required to be new, properly preserved, and labeled with manufacturer details, cure dates, expiration dates, and UCC/EAN-128 barcodes using NSN or PSCN identifiers. All goods are subject to inspection at origin and final acceptance at destination by DND, with quality assurance governed by ISO 9001:2015 and supporting documentation such as CF 1280 or DD Form 250. Contractors must hold appropriate security clearances for handling classified information, comply with the Controlled Goods Program, provide an end user certification confirming exclusive use by the Canadian Armed Forces, avoid conflicts of interest, refrain from bribery or contingency fees, and maintain full financial records for seven years following final payment, subject to audit. Submissions must include three distinct sections—technical, financial, and declaration forms—filed electronically via GETS or CPC Connect, or by fax to the designated National Capital Region number, with the financial offer submitted in both spreadsheet and PDF formats, the latter taking precedence. Invoices must be submitted electronically with full line item, contract, tax, and financial code details, paid to designated DND accounts in Halifax or Esquimalt, and all documentation may be submitted
