Ambient Vaporizer/Model A64SS-18.6-UHP-EP-LNG/1/

NASA’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center is issuing a sole‑source procurement under FAR 12.102(a) for an Ambient Vaporizer, Model A64SS‑18.6‑UHP‑EP‑LNG, to be supplied exclusively by ACME Cryogenics, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The vaporizer is a critical component of a new 15 kpsi liquid methane/LNG storage, pumping, off‑loading, and vaporization system at Stennis Space Center, Mississippi (ZIP 39529). Only OEM‑produced equipment and parts are acceptable; resellers or alternative brands are not permitted because no other vendor can provide the part within the required contractual territory, and the government already operates several ACME units, ensuring parts commonality, maintenance efficiency, and system compatibility. The contract’s total estimated value is not disclosed, and the delivery schedule is 36 weeks (lead‑time cited as 10 weeks ARO), with performance performed at Stennis. Responses must be submitted in writing to the point of contact, Shanna L. Patterson (shanna.l.patterson@nasa.gov), no later than 07:00 a.m. Central Standard Time on 29 April 2026. Submissions will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive acquisition is feasible; oral responses are not acceptable. The NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215‑84 (Ombudsman) applies, and the Center Ombudsman can be accessed via the NASA procurement website.
