Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, specifically NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support, has issued a Presolicitation for the repair/modification of an Optical Bench, A (NSN 7R-4920-016199200-SX). This is a proposed sole-source contract action under FAR 6.302-1, as the Government lacks sufficient data for full and open competition and requires Government source approval for this flight-critical item. Only previously approved sources have been solicited.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for the repair and/or modification of one (1) unit of Optical Bench, A, NSN 7R-4920-016199200-SX, with Technical Data Package (TDP) Version 001. Delivery is FOB Origin. Due to the item's flight-critical nature and insufficient technical data, Government source approval is mandatory prior to contract award.

Evaluation & Source Approval
This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability or submit proposals. If not an approved source, firms must submit detailed information as outlined in the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (WSS) Source Approval Information Brochures (available on the NAVSUP WSS Business Opportunities page). Proposals from non-approved sources failing to provide required source approval data will not be considered. The time required for new source approval typically prevents award delays. The Government reserves the right to proceed with an award based on Fleet support needs, even if source approval is pending.

Award will only be made if the offeror, product, or manufacturer meets qualification requirements per FAR 52.209-1 at the time of award.
