AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Navy intends to negotiate a sole-source order under Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-24-G-0005 with Rolls-Royce Corp to support the T-56 SIII/IV engine programs, specifically under the CY27 T56 SIV Component Improvement Program. The work scope is derived from FY 2027 Engineering Project Descriptions and focuses on component improvements critical to fleet readiness. Rolls-Royce is the only qualified source due to its status as the original designer and prime manufacturer, possessing exclusive access to technical data, engineering drawings, design specifications, and proprietary processes necessary to ensure compatibility between existing and redesigned hardware. The company also holds unique control over specialized tooling, test facilities, and sub-vendor networks required to validate and implement proposed engineering solutions. The procurement is being conducted under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, citing the absence of any other responsible source capable of meeting the Government’s requirements. This is a presolicitation notice, not a competitive request for proposals, and responses from other potential providers are invited but not required. Interested parties may submit information regarding their capability to meet the requirement by June 8, 2026, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time, though the Government will not compensate any submissions. The National Institute of Standards and Technology NAICS code 336412 applies to this requirement, identifying it as aircraft engine and engine parts manufacturing. The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Patuxent River, Maryland, is the lead office, and the point of contact is Contract Specialist Lyle Kralle. The Government reserves the right to proceed with a sole-source award based on the responses received, and all proprietary data, materials, and design processes remain the exclusive property of Rolls-Royce Corp.
