AI summary Beta
Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & IMF plans to buy yearly maintenance, repair and calibration for 26 OHD Quantifit2 respirator test fit machines. It intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order to the maker, OHD, LLLP, because of patents on the technology. Work is at JBPHH, Hawaii. Other companies may still send a capability statement, but the agency says only one source is available.
Watch out for
- Sole-source intent. The Navy has already picked the maker as the only source, so a small business that is not the manufacturer has very little chance of winning.
This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source contract and is not a request for competitive quotes.
- Patent-based justification. The agency says patents held by the maker mean no one else can do this work, and you would also need access to the maker's proprietary data.
only one source is available to meet this specific requirement due to patents on the technology
- Odd response deadline. The listed response date is years after the posting date, so confirm the real deadline with the contracting officer before relying on it.
