Synopsis: N42158-25-Q-0012: The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) at Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY) intends to award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) single award contract to modify an 80-ton General Electric locomotive so that it can operate using only one engine at a time. Currently, the locomotive operates with both engines running simultaneously to provide full power, but this modification will allow the operator to isolate and run a single engine independently. The required items are commercial in nature and are prepared in accordance with the guidance provided in FAR Subpart 12.6 and FAR Part 13, as supplemented by the additional information included in this notice. The proposed contract action involves commercial services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, McHugh Locomotive & Equipment, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). McHugh Locomotive & Equipment is uniquely qualified to perform the required services due to their proprietary knowledge, experience, and existing warranty coverage of the wiring system, which remains in effect until October 25, 2025. The wiring system is an integral and incidental component of the locomotive, and because contractors must access and work through this wiring during maintenance or repairs. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 488210, with a small business size standard of $34 million. The Product Service Code (PSC) assigned to this requirement is K022. The period of performance for this acquisition is anticipated to begin August 1, 2025, through October 8, 2025.
