The Navy's supply command (NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support) wants to buy repair of circuit breakers (NIIN 015378655, part number 458SUE2-1) for a foreign military sales (FMS) customer. The work is at the contractor's facility (listed as Vandalia, OH). Units can be sent in for repair for one year after award, and the price is firm-fixed per unit. The notice says 10 units but the amendment form lists 15, so confirm the count.
Watch out for
- Quantity does not match. The notice says 10 units but the amendment's line item says 15 each, so you cannot be sure what you are pricing.
- Evaluation factors are blank. The evaluation section is the unfilled template, so you cannot tell how offers will be ranked or whether price alone decides.
Insert evaluation factors in the relative order of importance.
- Repair is tied to the original manufacturer's data. You must test to the original manufacturer's specifications and drawings, and the schedule names GE Aviation (CAGE 07639) as the repair source, so a firm without that data may be unable to compete.
Repair GE Aviation
- Turnaround time and monthly throughput are unpriced commitments. You must state units per month and the contract will set a turnaround time; if you miss it, the price is open to renegotiation.
Contractor must provide a throughput Constraint for each NSN(s).
- Navy repair portal (CAV RP) setup required. Reporting is required, the cost must be built into your price, and registration needs a purchased PKI certificate, training and a Navy access request within 30 days of award.
Commercial Asset Visibility Repairables Portal (CAV RP) reporting is required under this purchase order/contract
- Rated order and export-controlled item clause. The order may carry a DPAS priority rating (the box is not filled in) and an export-controlled items clause, which adds compliance duties for a small shop.
252.225-7048 Export-Controlled Items. Jun 2013
- Unfinished solicitation form. Many blanks are left unfilled (item name shows EXAMPLE, quality standard, payment document types, solicitation number mismatch in the file name), so expect questions or an amendment.
