PUMP, CENTRIFUGAL

Statement of Work (SOW) / Performance Work Statement (PWS)

This document outlines the requirements for the overhaul of a Centrifugal Pump (NSN: 4320-01-595-4657, Part Number: 998-1110-B-28), used on the 154' WPC Fire Pump. The goal is to restore the pump to a serviceable "A" condition, meeting original design and technical specifications.

• Disassembly and Inspection: The contractor must disassemble, clean, and inspect the pump to determine its overall condition and estimate overhaul costs.

• Repair Plan: A detailed report and repair plan, including material, labor, testing, preservation, packaging, and marking costs, must be submitted to the Coast Guard Contracting Officer for approval before work begins.

• Overhaul: The pump must be restored to a condition equal to a new Pump, Centrifugal, meeting OEM specifications and standards. "Serviceable 'A' condition" means reconditioned to meet all design specifications and capable of functioning identically to a new unit, though appearance may differ.

• Replacement Parts: Only new OEM parts are acceptable. Reclaimed, recycled, or aftermarket parts are not allowed. Parts not manufactured by the OEM must be of equal quality.

• Testing: Standard production tests and inspections must be performed to ensure maximum design performance. Certifications of successful tests are required.

• Coating: If applicable, surfaces must be prepared and coated according to manufacturer requirements, using compatible primers and a finish coat matching the original color, unless otherwise approved.

• Calibration: All measuring and test equipment must be calibrated and traceable to national standards.

• Assembly: The pump must be delivered fully assembled and ready for installation.

• Warranty: The standard manufacturer warranty applies.

• Preservation: An appropriate preservative must be used to protect uncoated surfaces for a minimum of two years, as the pump is for system stock and not immediate installation.

• Delivery: The pump will be delivered to a destination specified by a government representative.

• Packaging and Packing: Each pump must be individually packaged in a sealed clear plastic bag and then placed in an ASTM-D6251 Type III, Class 1 Wood-Cleated Panelboard Shipping Box or an ASTM-D6880 Class 2 Heavy Duty screwed Wooden Box. The pump must be secured to prevent movement and damage.

• Marking: Marking must comply with MIL-STD-129R and bar-coded per ISO/IEC-16388-2007, Code 39 Symbology. All previous markings must be removed.

• Acceptance: Acceptance will be made at the destination by a government representative, contingent upon verification of no damage, completeness, and conformance to requirements.

Solicitation / Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This document justifies a "Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition" for the repair of six (06) Centrifugal Pumps (P/N: 998-1110-B-28, NSN: 4320-01-595-4657) used aboard the 154' WPC Coastal Patrol Boats. The estimated total value is $177,408.00.

• Repair of specific Carver Pump Co. centrifugal pumps.

• The pumps are integral components of the fire main system on the 154' WPC Coastal Patrol vessels, which were holistically designed by Bollinger Shipyards LLC.

• The government lacks detailed technical descriptions for these specific pumps, preventing full and open competition.

• The repair must ensure the reliability of the vessel's fire main system, which is critical for mission success and safety.

• Estimated Total Value: $177,408.00

• Authority cited: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) and related FAR clauses.

• This document identifies K&M Industrial, LLC as the suggested source.

• K&M Industrial, LLC is stated to be the sole U.S. repair facility authorized by Carver Pump Co., Inc. for these assemblies.

• The justification emphasizes that only the OEM or their designated facility can guarantee repairs meet required standards due to proprietary manufacturing drawings and technical data not being available for competitive use.

• The justification is based on the "Brand Name" or "Sole Source" rationale, as the specific pumps are essential and only one source (Carver Pump Co. or its authorized facility) can provide the necessary repair services.

• K&M Industrial, LLC is identified as a Minority-Owned Business, Self-Certified Small Disadvantaged Business, and Native American Owned business.

• The document notes that the Contracting Officer will continue market research for other potential suppliers, but securing the required technical data for full and open competition remains a challenge.

• The reliability of these pumps is paramount due to the hazardous operating environment of the patrol boats.

Other / Unclassified

This document, "Packaging and Marking Guide For DoD," prepared by the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) in March 2014, serves as an informational guide for familiarization purposes. It is not an officially adopted DoD document and does not replace contractual requirements, specifications, or regulations. The guide compiles information from current government packaging documents, pamphlets, and technical manuals for instructional use.

This guide is relevant to bidders as it outlines where packaging and marking requirements are typically found within solicitations and contracts (e.g., Section D - Packaging & Marking, Section J - Attachments). It details various military packaging and preservation methods (e.g., MIL-STD-2073-1E, ASTM D3951), hazardous material packaging regulations, and specific marking requirements (e.g., identification, address, special markings, bar codes, RFID). Understanding these requirements is crucial for bidders to accurately prepare proposals and ensure compliance with contract deliverables, especially for items requiring specialized packaging or handling. It also provides links to useful websites and tools for looking up packaging codes.
