NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (U.S. Navy) wants one Vertical Indicator repaired (NSN 6610-01-307-0911, part number 843-67-2A-M-1, CAGE 26136) for a Foreign Military Sales customer. It is a single-unit (1 each) firm-fixed-price repair, and the document lists Kearflex Engineering Co Inc as the repair facility; SAM.gov shows Warwick, RI as the place of performance. How the award is decided and how to submit are not in the text provided, and parts of the form are still template placeholders.
Watch out for
- No evaluation criteria or submission instructions in the text. Section M (evaluation factors) is empty and the form has no due date or how-to-submit instructions, so a bidder cannot tell how offers are judged or where to send them without asking the buyer.
Section M - Evaluation Factors for Award
- Template placeholders left in the document. Item fields still read EXAMPLE, and clause blanks such as <1L> and 'Contracting Officer insert' are unfilled, so some terms (quality standard, WAWF codes, contract type) are not final.
NIIN: EXAMPLE
- A repair facility is already named. The line item names Kearflex Engineering Co Inc as the repair facility, so it is unclear whether other firms can qualify or whether the part is source-restricted.
Repair Facility: KEARFLEX ENGINEERING CO INC
- Defense cybersecurity and supply-chain clauses. DFARS cyber, NIST SP 800-171 and counterfeit-part clauses are incorporated, which can be costly compliance for a small shop.
Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident Reporting
- CAV RP reporting with a tight start-up window. You must price in the cost of CAV RP and start registration within 10 days of receiving the order, including buying a PKI certificate and completing training.
Contractors not already registered for, or reporting via, CAV RP are required to initiate registration no later than 10 days
- Work depends on government-furnished property. You may not start if the unit received does not exactly match the order, and you must contact the buyer if the unit has not arrived within 45 days.
NOTE TO CONTRACTOR: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE CONTRACTOR PROCEED WITH THE PERFORMANCE UNDER
- Unusual delivery date. Delivery is shown as estimated by 13 Jan 2031, which looks like a placeholder, so the real turnaround time is unknown.
Delivery Date 13 Jan 2031
- Possible rated order and export controls. A priority rating (DX or DO under DPAS) may apply to any award, and export-controlled item rules are listed.
Export-Controlled Items
- Repair price may be handled as an estimate. If a repair price is not yet available, the contractor must send a detailed pricing proposal within 60 days or when costs reach 50% of the price, with payment held until a modification is issued.
