This is a sole-source procurement for spares, meaning the government intends to award to a single, pre-determined source. The requirement is issued under the terms of an existing Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA N0038326GP401). A critical condition is that these items require Government Source Approval prior to award, and unapproved offerors must submit a full source approval package with their proposal to be considered. No specific budget, performance location, or non-bid/proposal timelines are detailed in this description. For questions, contact the provided email address.

The U.S. Navy intends to make a sole-source procurement of six torque arm assemblies from Sikorsky, as it is the only approved source. The government does not own the technical data needed to purchase this part from other suppliers. While this is a sole-source notice, proposals received within 45 days of the synopsis will be considered for determining if a future competitive procurement is possible. Performance will be under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement, and any unapproved manufacturer must submit a Source Approval Request, but the procurement will not be delayed for that process. Electronic procedures will be used, and capabilities statements should be submitted to a specified Navy email address.
