J--CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMB, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF

The contract involves the procurement of two units of a circuit card assembly (NSN 7H-5998-014114808, TDP VER 003) intended for repair or modification. Delivery terms are FOB origin, and the items are to be issued to Northrop Grumman Systems Co. in Sykesville, Maryland. This is a sole-source procurement, with the government intending to negotiate exclusively with one supplier due to the unavailability of sufficient or accurate data to acquire the part from alternative sources. Although this notice is not a request for competitive quotations, interested parties may express their interest or submit quotes, which the government will consider before making an award decision. The government's choice not to open the procurement for competition will be based solely on responses to this notice. The solicitation, identified as N0010411PCD99, was posted by the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support office in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, under the Department of Defense. It is categorized as a presolicitation, meaning the government is in the preliminary stages of the procurement process but has not set aside the opportunity for specific types of businesses. The solicitation provides flexibility for potential vendors to indicate capability, but the final contracting action is planned with a single source, reflecting the specialized nature of the required circuit card assembly and the government's reliance on the current supplier.
