Specialized Heat Exchanger Manufacturing / Supply

The contract requires the supply or manufacture of replacement heat exchanger units that meet Caterpillar OEM and military specifications, with strict adherence to defense standards including UID marking and DFARS-compliant sourcing for all materials and components. All units must be produced or sourced in accordance with federal procurement regulations to ensure traceability, authenticity, and compliance with defense industrial base requirements. The work is intended for use by the Department of Defense, specifically under the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound, with performance expected to be carried out at location 21990. Submission of proposals is tightly constrained, with a response deadline set for July 28, 2026, at 5:00 PM, following a posting date of July 27, 2026. This is a subcontract opportunity classified under NAICS code 332410, which pertains to boiler, tank, and shipping container manufacturing, indicating the technical nature of the heat exchanger production. The absence of a set-aside designation suggests the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors, but compliance with military-grade manufacturing standards and DFARS requirements is mandatory. The short timeline between posting and response deadlines necessitates rapid preparation and readiness to meet exacting technical and regulatory criteria.
