Procurement of Paul & Whitney Fuel Control Unit
NOAA’s Office of Marine & Aviation Operations, Aircraft Operations Center requires one brand-name Paul & Whitney Fuel Control Unit, Part 8061-333, under a total small-business set-aside with NAICS 336412 and a 1,500-employee size standard. The unit supports King Air aircraft and is to be delivered/performance at NOAA AOC, 3450 Flightline Drive, Lakeland, FL 33811, with performance expected 60 days after award. Quoters must include all expected costs, including shipping and core deposit, verify country of manufacture/Buy American compliance, and provide the required technical approach, past performance references, SAM registration, and OEM authorization as applicable. The government intends to award a single firm-fixed-price purchase order on an all-or-none basis, evaluating technical approach and past performance as significantly more important than price, with price becoming more important as non-price solutions equalize. Contract administration will use FedConnect, and the government intends to evaluate initial quotes for best value without discussions.
