Repair of NIIN 016504230 / NOMEN: RDP

The Department of Defense’s NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support in Philadelphia plans to procure a single unit of an item identified by NSN 7R5841016504230, specifically part number FM300A381-0051, known as an RDP. This procurement will be made through a sole source contract with Lockheed Martin Corp, the original equipment manufacturer and sole known supplier of this part, as no drawings or data exist that would enable purchase from alternate vendors. The government does not hold the rights to the necessary technical data, and therefore intends to engage exclusively with Lockheed Martin under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302, recognizing them as the only responsible source capable of meeting the agency’s requirements. Although the solicitation is not a request for competition, all interested parties may submit capability statements or proposals within 35 days for consideration, primarily to determine if a competitive procurement is viable. The issuance will follow FAR Part 15 procedures, but not the commercial item acquisition policies under FAR Part 12, and it is not set aside for small businesses. The solicitation, titled "Repair of NIIN 016504230 / NOMEN: RDP," will be posted electronically on NECO, with no phone or hard copy requests entertained. Firms not currently approved to manufacture this material must submit a Source Approval Request, although procurement will not be delayed for SAR approval. The NAICS code associated with this procurement is 334511, and the Federal Supply Classification code is 5841. Interested organizations are encouraged to submit their qualifications or capability statements via email to the designated point of contact, Anna M. Kiessling, by the response deadline of December 23, 2025. The procurement emphasizes the unique nature of the item, the sole source justification, and the use of established government contracting procedures to meet the operational requirements of the agency.
