THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) Port Hueneme intends to award a firm fixed price contract to Oceans Pacific Technologies 2419 E. Harbor Blvd, #173 Ventura, CA 93001. Under the authority of FAR 13.106 (1) only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency’s requirements. The requirement is for Ocean Pacific Technologies' (OPT) to provide their patented fully ceramic water lubricated axial piston pump (APP) and motor (APM) to pumped hydropower energy storage (PHES) systems and will support particle wear resistance testing at the NAVFAC EXWC Seawater Desalination Test Facility (SDTF) to determine their capabilities with respect to particulate loading and operational longevity. OPT will support installation, commissioning as well as test planning, testing, trouble shooting, component wear measurement and data analysis including design modification suggestions. Successful application of the fully ceramic water lubricated APP and APM would enable PHES to be cost effectively scaled down to the installation/microgrid scale- providing long duration energy storage.
