Things to watch (8)
- Serious: Quantity not stated. The notice text gives no quantity or unit of issue, and a quote is priced per unit; check the full solicitation for the schedule.
- Serious: Price reductions for late repairs. Any asset not finished within the required repair turn around time gets a price cut, and the Government can also terminate for default; the amount is shown as XXXX.
- Serious: Distributors need OEM authorization. A reseller or non-manufacturer must name the OEM and attach a signed letter of authorization on the OEM's letterhead.

- Worth checking: Repair is priced in two steps. The first quote is an estimate; the firm-fixed-price quote comes only after teardown and evaluation, which must be done within 90 days of receiving the valves.
- Worth checking: DO-rated order under national defense priority rules. A DO rating under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) means the order must be filled ahead of unrated work.
- Worth checking: Repair price must cover damaged or incomplete valves. The price must include all costs for valves that arrive in unwhole condition, with missing hardware or damage.
- Minor: Bilateral award needs written acceptance. The award is signed by both sides, and the contractor must accept in writing before it takes effect.
- Minor: Mercury-free material. The material is for submarines and surface ships, and mercury contamination is a reason for rejection.
