The NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) intends to award a sole-source contract for the repair/modification or acquisition of 259 EA of NSN 7R-4810-013539209-GF Regulating Valves (Flight Critical). This action is justified under FAR 6.302-1 due to the item's flight criticality and the proprietary nature of technical data held by approved sources.
Purpose & Scope
This presolicitation seeks to acquire or repair 259 units of NSN 7R-4810-013539209-GF Regulating Valves, TDP VER 008, with delivery FOB Origin. The Government is utilizing FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items. The item is designated as flight critical, requiring strict engineering source approval to maintain quality.
Sole Source Justification & Qualification
The Government intends to negotiate with only one source because approved sources possess unique design capabilities, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge, along with data rights not economically available. New or alternate sources must undergo a Government source approval process in accordance with the design control activity's procedures. Information for this process is detailed in the NAVSUP WSS Source Approval Information Brochures (links provided in the original notice). Offers from unapproved sources must include all required source approval data; otherwise, they will not be considered.
