The U.S. Coast Guard needs a small business to manufacture and deliver ships service generators for its vessels.
Key Details
- What exactly do they need? The Coast Guard needs a ships service generator that meets specific electrical and mechanical requirements, including a 450-volt rating and a base KVA rating of 75. The generator must be configured with certain items, such as a SAE 2, 11.5" flex plate and an automatic voltage regulator. The generator must also meet certain packaging and marking requirements.
- What's the contract structure and timeline? The Coast Guard intends to award a firm fixed price contract on an all-or-none basis to a responsible offeror whose offer will be the most advantageous to the government. The contract will be awarded based on the lowest price technically acceptable.
- How will they pick the winner? The Coast Guard will evaluate offers based on the lowest price technically acceptable.
- When and how do you bid? Quotations are due on June 22, 2026, at 10:00 AM Eastern Standard Time. Offerors must submit their quotes through SAM.gov.
