USCG BASE Kodiak Fire Department requests quotes from qualified sources capable of providing Scott Safety Air Pak X3 Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) and facepieces (brand name only) as detailed in the attached SF-18. USCG Base Kodiak FD is already utilizing Scott Safety cylinders, which are a subassembly of the Air Pak X3 SCBA. A brand name only acquisition is supported by the rationale that Scott Safety cylinders are already being utilized by Base Kodiak FD and introducing other branded products is not viable because of the cost to replace existing cylinders and the time required to raining personnel on the new capabilities and limitations of newly introduced products would interfere with the safe execution outside of a training scenario.
View attached SF-18 Request for quote for a list of the required items and quantities.
The successful bidder must be authorized by the manufacturer to sell and service the equipment specified herein.
All terms, conditions, requirements, clauses and provision herein shall apply to this combined synopsis/solicitation.
