AI Contract Overview
This contract involves the procurement of eight units of a flexible spacer component identified as NSN 1H 4730 012226603 X5, designated as "SPACER, FLEXIBLE, PIP." It is a sole-source solicitation under FAR 6.302-1, meaning the government intends to negotiate and contract with only one source due to the unavailability of necessary data rights from other suppliers and because acquiring or reverse engineering the technical data would be uneconomical. The acquisition does not follow the usual procedures for commercial items under FAR Part 12, but interested parties can express their interest or submit capability statements within specified response windows to be considered. The award will be contingent upon meeting qualification requirements at the time of contract award, in accordance with FAR clause 52.209-1. The contracting office handling this procurement is the Navsup Weapon Systems Support Mech division of the Department of Defense, located in Mechanicsburg, PA. Interested parties are encouraged to review pre-solicitation details and submit responses by the deadline of May 7, 2026. Relevant military and federal specifications and supporting documents can be accessed through the DoD Single Stock Point or ASSIST online resources. While this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, the government will consider all timely submissions to determine whether a competitive procurement should be pursued. The primary point of contact for further information is Adele H. Lamb from the Navy, accessible via email or phone.
