Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH) has issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole-source procurement of a "HUB, PROPELLER, SHIP" (NSN: 7HH 2010 012480378 M2, P/N: 115752001 LH). This action authorizes an exception to fair opportunity, as only one source is deemed capable of fulfilling the requirement. The required delivery date is September 16, 2026.
Purpose & Overview
This document serves as a Sole Source Justification for Commercial Items under FAR 13.5 and 41 U.S.C. 1901, approving the negotiation and award of a contract without full and open competition. The procurement is for a critical ship propulsion component.
Key Requirements / Deliverables
- The primary deliverable is one "HUB, PROPELLER, SHIP".
- Required delivery by September 16, 2026.
Contract Details
- Type: Sole Source Justification (not a solicitation for proposals).
- Estimated Value: Not explicitly stated in the provided document, but indicated as a field to be filled.
- Period of Performance: Listed as "Expected Final Delivery Date" (September 16, 2026).
- Place of Performance: Walpole, MA, United States.
Eligibility / Set-Aside
- Set-Aside: None specified, as this is a sole-source justification, not a competitive set-aside.
- Rationale for Sole Source: The acquisition is for the second or subsequent time directly from the actual manufacturer. The item is commercial/nondevelopmental/off-the-shelf. It is concluded that only one source can satisfy the requirement because they are the only known source owning the necessary data, and it is uneconomical to acquire the data or reverse engineer the part. There are no authorized distributors for this National Item Identification Number (NIIN).
Submission & Evaluation
- This is a justification document, not a solicitation. Therefore, submission of proposals is not applicable, and there are no evaluation criteria for proposals.
Additional Notes
- The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry.
- NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage vendors with the expertise to manufacture/repair this item to submit a complete technical data package for review and source approval for future requirements. Future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
