The government requires 28 each of NSN 6K-8145-013574414-SY, referencing TDP VER 016 and REF NR 583E001, with delivery FOB origin. The part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality. Because approved source(s) hold unique design capability, engineering skills, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data not economically available to the Government, acquisition/repair must come from an approved source. An alternate source must qualify under procedures approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity with jurisdiction over the part’s intended application.

This opportunity requires manufacturing aluminum containers per Container Research Corporation drawing 05259 583E001 (latest revision) for DLA Aviation Philadelphia, with engineering source approval required unless already approved; new manufacturers may contact the buyer for Source Approval Request procedures. A pre-award survey and post-award conference may be required for new manufacturers, and this is a total small business set-aside. The contractor must perform welding, cleaning/deoxidizing, finishing, serialization/UID marking, shock-mount controls, and First Article Testing (FAT); the Government’s FAT testing cost is estimated at $15,000 and will be added to offerors requiring such testing. FAT requires delivery of one unit within 120 calendar days after contract award to the specified Government test facilities at Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Lakehurst, NJ, and/or NSWC Indian Head Division, Detachment Picatinny, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ; testing/evaluation is to be completed within 90 days after receipt, with contracting officer notification within 120 days after Government receipt. First Article approval may be waived for offerors that previously furnished identical accepted production articles within three years from the same facility, with required certification and possibly two prices.
