Supply of 1/2-Inch Needle Globe Valves

The contract calls for the procurement and delivery of three 1/2-inch needle globe valves, each rated for a maximum pressure of 1000 PSI and equipped with union ends, specifically for integration into LPD 24 reverse osmosis systems. These valves are critical components for precise flow control within high-pressure water purification infrastructure, and the specification demands strict adherence to pressure rating and connection type to ensure system integrity and operational reliability. The requirement is issued as a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside, meaning only small businesses certified by the Small Business Administration are eligible to bid, reinforcing a federal commitment to supporting smaller enterprises in defense-related supply chains. The solicitation was posted on August 2, 2026, and responses are due by August 13, 2026, with performance expected to take place in San Diego, California, at the ZIP code 92136-3581. The North American Industry Classification System code 332913 identifies the category as Other Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing, indicating the valves are to be manufactured or assembled by a specialized fabricator rather than a general industrial producer. The contracting authority is the Department of Defense through its San Diego office, underscoring the military context of the procurement. All bids must be submitted through the official DIBBS portal, and compliance with technical specifications, delivery timelines, and small business certification requirements is mandatory for award consideration.
