59--ANTENNA, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF
Solicitation # N0038326RPC65
The contract pertains to the acquisition of a flight-critical antenna component under NSN 7R-5985-015686919-E8, with a quantity of four units to be delivered FOB origin. Due to the unique design capability, proprietary manufacturing knowledge, and specialized technical data held exclusively by previously approved sources, procurement is restricted to those entities previously vetted and authorized by the Government. The item requires formal engineering source approval prior to contract award, as the available technical data is insufficient to support full and open competition, and the qualification of any new supplier would take longer than the timeline allows. Only preapproved sources have been solicited, and any entity not currently approved must submit comprehensive documentation aligned with the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Source Approval Information Brochures for spares or repair, depending on the nature of their proposed involvement. Failure to provide complete and accurate information as specified will result in disqualification from consideration. Requests for source approval already under evaluation at NAVSUP WSS must include a copy of the original submission cover letter. The Government is pursuing this acquisition under FAR 6.302-1, allowing sole-source negotiation due to the absence of qualified alternate suppliers and the critical nature of the component. While the notice is not a request for competitive proposals, all responsible parties may submit capability statements within 45 days of the publication date, or 30 days if under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement. Offers must conform strictly to the source approval requirements, and the Government retains full discretion to proceed without competition based on operational needs and market assessments. Commercial item acquisition policies under FAR Part 12 are not being applied, but interested vendors may still declare if they can meet the requirement with a commercial item within 15 days. Technical specifications and associated documents may be accessed via ASSIST-Online or the DODSSP, though drawings, patterns, and deviation lists are not stocked there. Proposals must be directed to the designated point of contact, Chris Campellone, and submitted prior to the September 21, 2026 deadline.
