This solicitation is for spares and is a 100 Percent Small Business Set-Aside. The resulting contract will be awarded exclusively to a government-approved source, with a single award to the eligible, responsible offeror whose quote is technically acceptable; price is the sole factor for determining the most advantageous offer. This part is a Critical Safety Item (CSI). Quotes may be emailed, and NAVSUP WSS requests that proposals remain valid for a minimum of 120 days.

The Navy intends to acquire 27 units of NSN 1R-1680-999202200-CB, part number MBCS15065-101, a shoulder harness reel, on a limited source basis from Allied Defense, IPT, or Kampi. These firms are the original equipment manufacturer and approved sources, as the government lacks the data rights to purchase from others. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal, but must have Source Approval Request (SAR) approval, which will not be delayed for. The anticipated award date is October 2026, and delivery is FOB origin. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals, but submissions will be considered for potential future competition.
