This is a sole-source requirement for an FMS spares purchase, intended for award under the terms of a specific Blanket Ordering Agreement (BOA). The items require Government Source Approval, and unapproved sources must submit a full source approval package with their proposal to be considered. The performance location and specific budget amounts are not detailed in this description. For further information, inquiries should be directed to the provided email contact.

The U.S. Navy intends to make a sole-source procurement to Sikorsky for two "Blade Rotary Rudder" parts. The government does not own the necessary data to purchase this part from other sources. While this is a notice of intent and not a formal request for proposals, the agency will consider any capability statements received within 45 days of the synopsis. Award is expected under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement, and firms not already approved to manufacture this item must submit a Source Approval Request, though the procurement will not be delayed for that approval. Electronic procedures will be used, and submissions should be sent to a specified Navy email address.
