This is a firm-fixed-price contract for the manufacture or refurbishment of a blower motor assembly, requiring conformance to specific military drawings and standards. The government intends to include a 90-day option for increased quantities. The work involves strict configuration control, welding and inspection to naval standards, and submission of data through a specified electronic system. This is a rated order for national defense, and accelerated delivery is encouraged.

This is a sole-source procurement for seven spares where the Navy lacks the technical data, and only sources pre-approved by the In-Service Engineering Activity (ISEA) may be considered. To become an approved repair source, a company must be certified as a Depot Overhaul Point and submit a Source Approval Request for technical review by NAVSEA, which is noted to be a lengthy process. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source, but it will consider proposals or capability statements received within 45 days of the synopsis publication for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Offers for remanufactured, surplus, or repaired items will not be considered. The acquisition includes an option for increased quantity and is not using commercial item procedures, though commercial item responses may be identified within 15 days.
