Allen Bradley Hardware

NASA Langley Research Center requires the acquisition of Allen‑Bradley hardware that will interface with existing Rockwell/Allen‑Bradley PLCs and equipment. Because the items must be sourced from the original manufacturer to maintain system compatibility, warranty coverage, factory support, and the latest versions, the agency has determined that Electrical Equipment Co. is the sole authorized dealer for the region and the only source capable of providing the required Rockwell Automation/Allen‑Bradley products, related technical‑support contracts, and training. The solicitation (80NSSC26930774Q) is being issued under FAR 12.102(a) as a sole‑source commercial item procurement (NAICS 334519) with an estimated cost to be determined and a delivery lead time ranging from one week to four months. Responses must be submitted in writing to the point of contact by 12 p.m. Central Standard Time on 21 April 2026. The vendor must be an authorized Rockwell Automation reseller for the NASA Langley geographic area, guarantee warranty coverage on all quoted items, and be able to provide the specific Kinetix and MobileView components listed (e.g., continuous‑duty servo motors, single‑axis inverters, cable assemblies, feedback connector kits, bus supplies, line filters, operator terminals, accessories, and DC bus bars). The government has identified that using any other brand would require replacing existing interfacing equipment, resulting in significant dollar, schedule, and compatibility impacts, and would forfeit access to factory support and warranties. Oral responses are not accepted; all communications must follow the NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215‑84 and be directed to Procurement Specialist Shanna L. Patterson.
