This is a procurement for 12 units of a flight-critical part where the Government intends to negotiate with only one pre-approved source due to a lack of adequate technical data for full competition. The acquisition is 100% set aside for small businesses, though the specific type of set-aside will be defined in the solicitation. Companies that are not already approved sources must submit a comprehensive source approval request with their proposal, using the specified NAVSUP WSS brochures. The Government will consider proposals received within 45 days of the synopsis publication for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No specific budget, performance location, or non-bid timelines are detailed in this description.

This is a sole-source solicitation for the new manufacture of spare parts, where the government lacks the data to contract with anyone other than the current source. The solicitation date has been extended. All items require Government Source Approval prior to award, and unapproved offerors must submit a complete source approval package with their proposal. No budget or location for performance is specified.
