This requirement is for newly manufactured spare parts to be delivered to a domestic U.S. freight forwarder under an FMS arrangement, with ownership retained by the foreign customer country. The work requires compliance with a higher-level quality requirement equivalent to ISO 9001 and includes a warranty of 12 months. Proposals must be submitted via email, and only offers from Government-approved sources of supply or their authorized distributors with proper documentation will be considered technically acceptable. The requirement is issued under Emergency Acquisition Flexibilities, and technical drawings are not available.

This is a procurement for 11 units of a flight-critical part that requires government source approval prior to contract award. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one approved source, but all responsible sources may submit proposals or capability statements. Proposals received within 45 days of the synopsis publication will be considered. Interested parties may also identify their capability to satisfy the requirement with a commercial item within 15 days of this notice. The part requires unique engineering and manufacturing capabilities held by approved sources, and new sources must undergo a lengthy qualification process.
