The contract involves the procurement of three units of a circuit card assembly for repair or modification, identified by NSN 7H-5998-014924367 and TDP version 002. The delivery terms specify FOB origin, with the shipment directed to Northrop Grumman Systems Co. in Sykesville, Maryland. The Government has issued a notice of intent, indicating plans to negotiate a sole-source contract without requesting competitive quotes, but interested parties may express interest or submit quotes before the award date. This approach is due to the Government’s lack of sufficient accurate data to source the part from vendors other than the current supplier. The contract is managed by the Department of Defense’s Navsup Weapon Systems Support Mech office in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, under solicitation number N0010410PCK96. The procurement is classified as a presolicitation and does not specify any set-aside status or NAICS code. Responses to the notice will help determine if a competitive procurement is warranted, but the Government retains full discretion over whether to proceed with competition. This contract pertains to specialized supplies that require negotiation directly with a single source based on their capability and the Government’s current knowledge of supply availability.
