Quick Summary

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWC-AD) is soliciting proposals for a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) contract, N68335-26-R-1025, for Peculiar Support Equipment (PSE) for the CH-53K Aircraft. This 100% Small Business Set-Aside opportunity supports O-level maintenance for the NAVAIR CH-53K Program and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) Program Israel. Proposals are due by May 13, 2026.

Scope of Work

This solicitation seeks the production and delivery of PSE, including various slings, maintenance stands, fixtures, and carts, as detailed in the attached pricing matrix and part lists (e.g., "FY26 O-Level Bag Group E_Attachment.xlsx"). These items are critical for the initial outfitting of CH-53K squadrons and to facilitate O-level maintenance operations for the CH-53K Aircraft, supporting both domestic and FMS platforms. All end items must be manufactured according to Government-furnished technical data packages (TDPs).

Key Requirements & Eligibility

Offerors must meet stringent requirements:

  • CMMC Level 2 (self-assessment) certification is required pre-award to access Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) drawing packages and for contract award eligibility.
  • A certified DD Form 2345 (Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement) is mandatory to request access to Export Controlled drawings.
  • AS9100D Certification is required at the time of award and throughout contract performance.
  • Delivery of items is required within 200 calendar days from the date of award, with no alternative lead-times accepted.
  • Various Contract Data Requirements Lists (CDRLs) specify deliverables such as Material, Plating/Coating, Dimensional Quality, Calibration, Proof Load, Non-Destructive Inspection (NDI) certifications, and Request for Information (RFI) Technical Data Packages. These must be submitted in PDF format to the CH-53K Support Equipment Engineer, Ed Ceralde.

Submission & Evaluation

Proposals must be submitted electronically and structured into four volumes. Specific formatting guidelines include letter-sized pages, single-spacing, one-inch margins, and submission as searchable PDFs (Microsoft Office 2025 is acceptable). A 10-page limit is recommended for the Technical volume. Offerors can reference subcontractor past performance, and Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) should be sent directly to the Government end-user. Evaluation will be based on Technical (Acceptable/Unacceptable) and Past Performance (Acceptable/Unacceptable), with the award going to the lowest evaluated price among acceptable proposals.
