This notice is not a solicitation for competitive quotes but indicates the Government’s intent to negotiate exclusively with a single source, though it allows interested parties to express interest or submit quotes prior to award. The Government’s decision not to pursue competitive procurement is based on the lack of sufficient, accurate, or legible data to source the part from anyone other than the current supplier. The solicitation, listed under number N0010411PCJ82 and posted on June 2, 2011, is managed by the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanical office in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.

Responses received will primarily be used to determine whether competitive procurement should be pursued, with discretion resting entirely with the Government.
