Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy, NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (WSS), has issued a presolicitation for the repair/modification of an Antenna Assembly (NSN 7R-5985-015465475-E8). This is an intended sole-source action under FAR 6.302-1, as the item is flight critical and requires engineering source approval. The Government plans to negotiate with only previously approved sources. However, all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability to respond.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for the repair/modification of Antenna Assembly, NSN 7R-5985-015465475-E8, with a quantity of 1 EA, FOB Origin. Due to the flight-critical nature and unique design capabilities, existing engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge, acquisition/repair is typically from approved sources. The approved sources retain data rights or technical data not economically available to the Government, which is essential for maintaining quality.
