VALVE, GATE

This procurement is for 33 Gate Valves, National Stock Number 4810007349491, under solicitation SPE7MC26R0009, with a potential to increase to a maximum of 66 units across four predefined quantity increments. The acquisition is restricted to the approved source, MEGGITT NORTH HOLLYWOOD INC, due to the absence of complete, unrestrictive technical data, invoking authority under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Delivery is required within 540 days of contract award, with shipments FOB origin and government inspection and acceptance occurring at the destination. Packaging and marking must comply with ASTM D3951 and MIL-STD-129, which mandate specific labeling including NSN, CAGE code, lot number, and UCC/EAN-128 barcoding. The contract is being handled under FAR Part 15, not Part 12, meaning it is not treated as a commercial item acquisition, though offerors may propose commercial alternatives within 15 days of notice. Evaluation will consider price, delivery schedule, past performance, and other factors as outlined in the formal solicitation, with potential for Certified Cost or Pricing Data to be required if the total value exceeds $2 million. All offers must be submitted electronically via DIBBS by the response date of June 15, 2026, and the solicitation will become available no earlier than May 12, 2026. The primary point of contact is Benjamin Nevitt and the secondary is Amy Rich, both located at DSCC Building 20 in Columbus, Ohio. The Government retains discretion to exercise options in specific ranges and may require First Article Testing, production lot testing, and disclosure of hazardous materials or precious metals. While no formal contract clauses are listed, the procurement structure incorporates standard DoD packaging, marking, inspection, and pricing requirements tied to statutory and regulatory frameworks.
