The U.S. Navy’s Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support in Philadelphia plans to procure 24 aircraft seats, NSN 1680-016890941, part number 121108-5, exclusively from Sikorsky, the Original Equipment Manufacturer, under a sole source justification. These seats are specifically for the CH-53K helicopter platform, and no technical drawings or data are available to enable alternative sourcing. The government does not hold the intellectual property rights to the part, and Sikorsky is the only known source capable of providing repair support, necessitating the use of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 for non-competitive acquisition. Source approval is mandatory and will not delay the award process, meaning any new potential suppliers must submit a Source Approval Request separately and cannot delay procurement. The procurement will follow FAR Part 15 procedures and is not considered commercial item acquisition under FAR Part 12. Buy American requirements and UID labeling are applicable. The solicitation will be issued electronically via NECO on or about April 29, 2026, with responses due by May 29, 2026, and an anticipated award date of July 31, 2026. Interested parties may submit capability statements via email to the designated point of contact, but no telephone inquiries or hard copies will be accepted. This transaction is not set aside for small businesses and will proceed without competition regardless of responses received.
