The government intends to procure 1,500 EA of NSN 1R-5320-017256163-P8, reference AF904B-5E-5, with delivery FOB origin and early/incremental deliveries accepted and preferred. Contractual documents are considered issued when mailed, faxed, or sent electronically, and government acceptance of a proposal constitutes bilateral agreement to that issuance method. The action is intended as a sole-source negotiation under FAR 6.302-1, though responsible sources may identify interest and capability or submit proposals, quotations, or capability statements; this notice is not a request for competitive proposals. Specifications and standards are available via DODSSP/ASSIST, but patterns, drawings, deviation lists, and purchase descriptions are not stocked at DODSSP. FAR Part 12 commercial-item procedures are not being used, but interested parties may identify commercial-item interest and capability to the contracting officer.
