Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support) intends to issue a sole source presolicitation for MOTOR ASSY, BLOWER (NSN 7H-6105-015098978), quantity 7 per year. The Navy does not possess the technical data for this item. This action is under FAR 6.302-1, allowing negotiation with only one source. Interested parties must respond by March 10, 2026.
Scope of Requirement
This requirement is for the supply of new Motor Assembly, Blower units. The Navy explicitly states that offers for remanufactured, surplus, or repairs will not be considered non-responsive, unless the offeror is an approved repair source. Delivery is FOB Origin. The acquisition will include FAR clause 52.217-6 (Option for Increased Quantity).
Qualification Requirements
Due to the lack of technical data, the Navy requires In-Service Engineering Activity (ISEA) approved sources. For companies interested in becoming an approved repair source for spares, certification as a Depot Overhaul Point (DOP) is mandatory. Potential sources must complete and return a Source Approval Request (SAR)-Maritime (available at https://public.navsup.navy.mil/public/ops$public.business_vendor_form_new). The SAR will undergo a technical referral and review by NAVSEA ISEA, a process that can be lengthy. Award is contingent on meeting qualification requirements per FAR clause 52.209-1.
