16--BLD AIR SHUTOFF VLV, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF

The U.S. Navy, through NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support, intends to award a sole-source contract for 26 units of the BLD AIR SHUTOFF VALVE with part number 5626-00-1 and NIIN 015612426 under authority of FAR 6.302-1, citing unusual and compelling urgency or sole source justification. The contract action is linked to the repair or modification of equipment and requires delivery FOB origin with the solicitation number N0038326QMB12. The requirement is not open for competitive bidding and is targeted exclusively at the original equipment manufacturer or qualified non-prime sources; any failure to respond will be interpreted as a lack of interest. Responses must be submitted within 45 days of the notice publication date of August 5, 2026, though this window reduces to 30 days if an existing Basic Ordering Agreement is used for award. All submissions will be evaluated solely to determine whether competition is feasible, with the final decision to proceed without competition resting entirely at the government’s discretion. The point of contact for inquiries is Stacey Ryan of the Philadelphia, PA office, reachable via email or phone, with the performance location unspecified but delivery terms clearly defined as FOB origin.
