Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH) has published a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole source procurement of a HUB, PROPELLER, SHIP (NSN: 2010-01-248-0377, P/N: 115752000 R.H.). This notice, published on June 1, 2026, authorizes an exception to fair opportunity based on FAR Subpart 13.5 for commercial items.
Scope of Procurement
- Deliverable: One "HUB, PROPELLER, SHIP".
- Nature: This is a commercial, nondevelopmental, off-the-shelf item.
- Place of Performance: United States (specifically MA).
- Required Delivery Date: November 2, 2026.
Contract Details
- Type: Sole Source Justification (not a competitive solicitation).
- Authority: 41 U.S.C. 1901, implemented by FAR Subpart 13.5.
- Set-Aside: None (sole source procurement).
- Estimated Value: Not explicitly stated in the justification document.
Rationale for Sole Source
The justification states that the item is being acquired for the second or subsequent time directly from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The Government does not possess the necessary data or data rights to openly compete this requirement, and there are no authorized distributors or known substitutes. Although this is a sole source action, efforts were made to solicit offers from as many practicable offerors, and the proposed contract action was synopsized in the government-wide point of entry. The contracting officer will ensure the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable prior to award.
Future Considerations
NAVSUP WSS encourages vendors with relevant expertise to submit technical data packages for future requirements. The agency will assess competition feasibility if other potential manufacturing sources emerge.
