NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support in Mechanicsburg, PA plans to buy 700 ball bearings (NSN 3H-3110-009873731-NT) for delivery to DLA Distribution depots in New Cumberland, PA and Tracy, CA. This is a presolicitation (early notice) set aside for small businesses. The part requires engineering source approval, so only approved sources can supply it.
Watch out for
- Engineering source approval required. Unless you are already an approved source, you would need to qualify through a government engineering approval process that usually takes longer than this buy allows.
An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures
- Approved sources hold the technical data. The data needed to make this part is not available to the government, so new makers are at a big disadvantage.
The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government
- Split delivery to two depots. Shipping to both Pennsylvania and California adds cost you need to build into your price.
