The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration needs a small business to manufacture Eaton Valve Plugs for the National Logistics Support Center in Grandview, MO.
Key Details
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) needs a small business to manufacture Eaton Valve Plugs (P/N M-109) for the National Logistics Support Center in Grandview, MO. The Government intends to make an award to the responsive responsible quoter providing the best value in accordance with 2). This is a brand name requirement. The EATON Valve Plug brand name is essential to the requirement and market research indicates similar products do not meet or cannot be modified to meet agency needs. The Program invested time and research to ensure fit form and function of all components and parts, to include The EATON Valve Plug which is a manufactured consumable replacement part for the Azimuth Drive Module Assembly. The EATON Valve Plugs are required for routine NEXRAD repairable equipment maintenance. Without the EATON Valve Plug, the National Weather Service (NWS) would be unable to meet its Tri-Agency Agreement to provide internal and external stakeholders with spare parts for repair and replacement. The EATON Valve Plugs are currently identified as zero-balance and are paramount to ensuring the NEXRAD system remains full mission-capable. If this requirement is not solicited for the EATON Valve Plug brand name, the mission impact would be significant, as the radar system could become inoperable due to a lack of compatible repair parts.
