This NAVSUP WSS requirement is a total small-business set-aside for a special-emphasis, Level I/SUBSAFE shipboard parts kit consisting of one ball and two mating seats built to drawings 255583 and 255584 under Emergency Acquisition Flexibilities. The ball requires SAE-AMS-6931 or centrifugally cast 6AL-4V ASTM-B367 Grade C-5 material, while the seats require MD71-GG Mearthane graphite-filled urethane from Mearthane Products Inc., with Teflon coating and hydrostatic, dye-penetrant, and NDT testing/certifications. The contract demands stringent quality assurance, including ISO-9001 or MIL-I-45208 quality systems, traceability/OQE, configuration control, weld/braze qualification, Government quality assurance at source, a certificate of compliance, and mercury-free material. Offerors must hold a valid U.S. Confidential-or-higher security clearance because the procurement includes a Confidential-level annex, and classified material must be handled under NISPOM/DoD industrial security rules. The award will be bilateral, a one-year warranty from delivery applies, new welding procedure qualification requires at least 72-hour DCMA notification, and past performance will be considered by NAVSUP WSS Mechanicsburg.

NAVSUP WSS Mechanicsburg seeks a contractor to manufacture a Special Emphasis/Level I shipboard parts kit consisting of one ball and two mating seats, where incorrect material could cause catastrophic shipboard failure, under Emergency Acquisition Flexibilities and as a DO-rated DPAS order awarded bilaterally.
