AI Contract Overview
This contract establishes a sole-source procurement with United Contamination Control, Inc. for O2 cleaning services specifically for 450 non-magnetic pressure gauges, as outlined in the statement of work and its attachments. The cleaning service is essential for pressure gauges used in MK 16 Mod 1 and VIPER Underwater Breathing Apparatus (UBA), ensuring compliance with certification standards that require documented proof of oxygen cleaning. The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) oversees these components and found that previous cleaning attempts by the original manufacturer, Eaton, lacked the necessary quality certification, necessitating this additional cleaning step. Due to the specialized nature of the cleaning process and the critical operational need, the Navy conducted market research soliciting bids from four vendors; only United Contamination Control possessed both the facilities and qualifications required to perform the oxygen cleaning service. This urgent procurement under FAR 6.302-1 and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) is vital to addressing supply shortages that could negatively impact fleet readiness and result in high-priority casualty reports (CASREPs). The office handling this contract is located in Panama City Beach, Florida, with Jessica Clark as the primary point of contact. Responses or inquiries regarding this procurement must be submitted by April 6, 2026, by 11 a.m. Central Time.

Full Description
Sole Source to United Contamination Control, Inc. for O2 CLEANING SERVICES OF PRESSURE GAUGES, As Stated in the Statement of Work and All Attachments.
DECSRIPTION: Pressure Gauge NON-MAG
QTY: 450
This procurement is Sole Source to United Contamination Control, Inc. for O2 CLEANING OF PRESSURE GAUGES.
This action is executed under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, as services are available from only one responsible source and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. NSWC PCD is the designated depot and technical authority for all EOD Diving and Life Support underwater breathing apparatus (UBA) components. During a recent end-of-life procurement, part number 1120-012 was acquired from the original manufacturer, EATON, with the contractual requirement that the parts be delivered O2 cleaned for use in the MK 16 Mod 1 and VIPER UBAs. Upon receipt, EATON failed to provide the required Objective Quality Evidence (OQE) to certify this cleaning was performed. To comply with SEA00C's continued certification standards, these parts cannot be placed into service or inventory without documented proof of O2 cleaning. To resolve this deficiency, NSWC PCD conducted market research by soliciting formal quotes from four vendors in the industry: DP Industries, General Dynamics Information Technology, Chase Defense, and United Contamination Control (UCC). The other three
vendors formally declined to bid, stating via written correspondence that their facilities lacked the specific capabilities for this process; only UCC possessed the unique qualifications and clean-room facilities necessary to perform the required service. This gauge is now in extremis. There are critical backorders at NAVSUP, which directly impacts fleet readiness. Delays in certifying these parts will prevent the restoration of mission-capable MK 16 UBAs, likely leading to the submission of high-priority Casualty Reports (CASREPs) and a degradation of EOD operational capability. Due to this urgent and critical need, this award is being processed on a sole-source basis to United Contamination Control.
