Description
Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound (FLCPS) intends to solicit for Gated Wyes of supplies
GATED WYES part number B-97.
This requirement must be procured on a brand-name-only basis from Elkhart Brass Manufacturing Company. Elkhart Brass Part Number B-97 is the direct replacement for the existing installed equipment and has been successfully used by SRF for more than 20 years with a proven record of reliable performance and no known operational deficiencies. Although similar products may be commercially available, the use of a Gated Wye manufactured by another company introduces an unacceptable risk of incompatibility with the existing firefighting system. Interested companies may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement, which will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination not to compete this action based upon responses received to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
The Government will evaluate the offeror’s price for reasonableness and past performance as part of the responsibility determination in accordance with RFO 12.203.
Anticipated Award Date: July 2026
