This is a small business set-aside solicitation for the manufacture and supply of bearings, with award restricted to government-approved sources and offers evaluated on capacity, delivery, and past performance—factors that together outweigh price. Offerors must submit a firm-fixed unit price per CLIN, with tiered pricing not accepted, along with no more than three relevant past performance references from the past three years. If not already an approved source, offerors must include the required source approval data with their proposal. The contract includes a one-year warranty from delivery, quality assurance requirements, mercury-free material restrictions, and MIL-STD packaging and marking standards. The resulting award will be made using competitive procedures under this limited competition.

This opportunity is a small business set-aside for the manufacture of a bearing, with award limited to government-approved sources. The contract will be firm fixed-price, and offers will be evaluated with non-price factors (capacity, delivery, past performance) considered more important than price. Offerors must submit recent past performance references (within three years) and, if not an approved source, provide all data required by the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Brochure. The performance location is not specified, and no budget amount is provided. The closing date for submissions is listed on page one of the solicitation.

This opportunity is for the acquisition of 8 units of a specific part (NSN 1H-3110-011296569) to be delivered to DLA Distribution in New Cumberland, PA, and DLA Dist San Joaquin in Tracy, CA. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, as it does not own the data or rights to reverse engineer the part, making it uneconomical to purchase from additional sources. Contracts will only be awarded to approved sources whose inspection system conforms to MIL-I-45208A, as certified by a joint DCMA/NAVSUP WSS survey team. Interested parties may submit capability statements or proposals within 45 days of this notice’s publication (or 30 days if under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement) for consideration. No specific budget amount is mentioned, and the government will determine whether to compete based on responses received.
