Things to watch (9)
From the version posted Oct 23, 2026.
- Serious: Small business set-aside. Only small businesses under NAICS 532490 can bid; larger firms are shut out.
- Serious: Delivery within 48 hours of award. The PWS asks for delivery within 48 hours of award, while the period of performance starts November 20, 2026. You need a qualifying generator ready to ship before award.
- Worth checking: Price support documents required. A quote must include documents that back up your prices, such as a past invoice or contract, and pricing data for the same or similar services sold to commercial customers.

- Worth checking: 24/7 support and 48-hour fix or swap. You must have an on-call technician at all hours, decide repair or replace within 4 hours, and restore operation within 48 hours, with a spare unit available.
- Worth checking: Detailed equipment specification. The unit must meet many technical features, including a container enclosure with four crane lift points and secondary fluid containment. Check that your unit qualifies before quoting.
- Worth checking: Base access and badging lead time. Staff entering the shipyard need badges, and the visit request goes to the Navy at least five full working days before the requested start date. It lists each person's date of birth and Social Security number.
- Worth checking: Process Control Procedure counts in the evaluation. The PCP is created as part of the proposal evaluation. An incomplete quote can be eliminated, so a missing PCP risks an unacceptable rating.
- Minor: Service Contract Labor Standards wage rules apply. The clause for Service Contract Labor Standards (minimum wages for service workers) is included, with Department of Labor Wage Determination 2015-5525 Rev 32. Check how it affects your labor costs.
- Minor: Questions deadline. Questions go by email to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer, and the Government does not promise answers to late ones.
