Shadow Excursion UBA Replacement Parts

The Naval Special Warfare Command intends to award a sole-source, five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract to Chase Defense Partners for the procurement of Shadow Excursion Underwater Breathing Apparatus (UBA) replacement parts. This requirement supports the maintenance of UBA systems used in military operations. Chase Defense Partners is identified as the only authorized North American distributor for these parts by the original equipment manufacturer, James Fisher Defense Limited. The contract will utilize firm-fixed-price task orders with an estimated minimum value of $4,000 and a maximum ceiling of $249,000.

The acquisition is categorized under NAICS code 339920, Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing, and PSC 4220, Marine Lifesaving and Diving Equipment. This special notice, published by the Department of Defense, includes a redacted sole-source justification as an attachment and identifies Meredith Howes as the primary point of contact. The solicitation, numbered H9224022T0031, follows procedures for restricted competition when only one source is reasonably available.

The performance of this contract will take place within the United States. While the notice was published on June 28, 2022, the government established a response deadline of July 26, 2022. This announcement serves as a notice of intent rather than a formal request for proposals or a binding obligation on the part of the government.
