47--REDUCER

This contract involves the procurement of 14 units of a reducer, identified by NSN 1H-4730-015979708-X2, under technical data package version 002. The items are to be delivered to the receiving officer at Kittery, Maine, with the issue directed to USA Spares Inc. in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The Government intends to negotiate exclusively with a single source for these supplies, and this notice serves as an indication of that intent rather than a solicitation for competitive quotes. However, interested parties may express their interest and provide quotes prior to the award date, which the Government may consider before finalizing the contract. The procurement process is managed by the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanical office, located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. The notice clarifies that the Government holds full rights to the complete technical data package without any restrictions on engineering, tooling, or manufacturing. Unlike other acquisition risk management source codes that suggest limited competition, this contract’s designation indicates potential eligibility for full and open competition should multiple capable sources be identified and the technical data package be adequate. The final determination to proceed without competition remains at the Government’s discretion. For inquiries, the designated point of contact is Brianna Walker, reachable through phone and email.
