This procurement is being conducted pursuant to FAR 19.5.01 as a small business set-aside.

Vendor must be authorized as a technical repair facility representing the clausing Colchester manufacturing company. Questions pertaining to this solicitation must be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer at peter.psanis@uscg.mil no later than 5pm EST on September 17th, 2026. The subject line of the email must include the solicitation number (RFQ No.70Z02426Q0000179).

Site visit is highly recommended and can be coordinated through: curtis.d.lefever@uscg.mil (508) 596-2474. Quote Submission Instructions Quote submissions are due by 12:00pm EST on September 21th, 2026 and must be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer, peter.psanis@uscg.mil Evaluation: Factor 1 – Technical Experience Vendor must provide evidence of required experience as indicated in the SOW. Evaluation: Factor 2 – Relevant Experience It is highly desirable that offerors include relavent experience related to the SOW. The information provided in the Relevant Experience submission must be sufficiently detailed so that the Government can determine whether the project(s) demonstrate relevant experience of similar scope, size, and complexity of this acquisition. Evaluation: Factor 3 – Price The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s price quote for completeness, accuracy, compliance, and to determine price reasonableness. Basis of Award: This procurement is being conducted pursuant to FAR 19.5.01 as a small business set-aside. The Government intends to award a single firm-fixed price task order to the Offeror whose quote represents the best value to the Government. Comparative evaluations (comparing quotes to each other) will be used to select the Offeror that is best suited and provides the best value based on the following three (3) factors in descending order of importance: Factor 1 - Technical Experience, Factor 2 - Relevant Experience, and Factor 3 - Price. The Government will use the tradeoff process to make a determination of best value. This means that the Government will consider issuing an award to other than the lowest priced Offeror, other than the highest technically and relevant experience evaluated Offeror based on an assessment and tradeoff between non-price factors (Factor 1 and 2) and price (Factor 3). The nonprice factors are more important than price. However, the closer the quote’s non-price evaluations are to one another, the more significant the price factor becomes in determining the best value to the Government. This is only a request for quotation. No guarantee of award is made or implied. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. ## Publications - September 9, 2026: Combined synopsis and solicitation, due September 16, 2026 at 12:00 PM EDT.
