This is a proposed contract for 119 units of an item containing explosives, requiring first article and production lot testing. The Government intends to negotiate with only two pre-determined sources, but will consider capability statements from all responsible sources. A pre-award safety survey is required, and special security, safety, and transportation clauses apply due to the explosive ordnance. Interested parties may identify their capability to provide a commercial item alternative within 15 days of this notice. The delivery schedule and specific technical data will be determined and made available later.

NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support is seeking contractors to manufacture a specific divergence rocket motor used for aircraft ejection seat safety. The government lacks the necessary data to manufacture the item itself. This is a sources sought notice to identify interested and capable contractors, not a formal request for proposals. A determination on whether to compete the contract will be based on responses received.
