J--VALVE,REGULATING,FL, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF

The contract involves the procurement of three units of a regulating valve (NSN 7H-4820-013608499, TDP VER 003) intended for repair or modification, to be delivered FOB origin. The work is to be issued to Honeywell International Inc., located in Tempe, Arizona. This action is based on a sole-source intent, meaning the government plans to negotiate exclusively with Honeywell without soliciting competitive bids. However, the notice allows interested parties to express interest or submit quotes before the award date, which the government may consider, although it retains full discretion over whether to pursue competitive procurement. The requirement arises because the government currently lacks sufficient, accurate, or legible data to obtain the part from any source other than the incumbent supplier. The Department of Defense's Navsup Weapon Systems Support Mechanic office in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, is overseeing the contract under solicitation number N0010404DD1005031, with a presolicitation date of February 15, 2006. This procurement is categorized as a non-competitive sole-source action supporting the repair or modification of the regulating valve, and no set-aside provisions or specific NAICS codes are designated.
